The Jewell Subsector is named after the cluster of six Imperial Worlds in the center of the subsector. It is a group of worlds the Zhodani have often considered a staging point for any Imperial attack against the Consulate. Due to the Jewell worlds’ strategic location, Imperial personnel have long called the subsector “Battle Subsector,” as the area has seen much of the fighting during all the Frontier Wars.
The Imperial subsector capital is Jewell, which is also the headquarters of the 212th Imperial Fleet. The Zhodani capital is the world of Riverland, which gives its name to the Cluster and the Riverland Wall, a set of defensive naval bases from Farreach to Cipango.
The Jewell cluster of worlds is heavily fortified, and boasts a large contingent of Imperial troops as well as naval and scout forces. Similarly, the Zhodani-controlled communications link (Chwistyoch - Clan - Farreach) has seen heavy military construction in the decades since the Fourth Frontier War.
Physical Astrography[edit]
The Jewell subsector is fragmented into three distinct areas; an Imperial region answering to the duke at Regina, a Zhodani military district under the Cronor Subsector establishment, and a mutually agreed-upon neutral zone open to both sides, but theoretically demilitarized. [1]
