The Denebola Subsector (alternate spelling: Denobola) of the Alpha Crucis Sector contains 30 worlds with a population of 126.2 billion. The highest population is 80 billion, at Phoenix. The highest tech level is F at Leisz.

The subsector is named after a bright white star in the Denebola system that is visible from the naked eye on Terra. The subsector was first settled by Solomani colonists from the Terran Confederation following the Ninth Interstellar War. The coreward region of the subsector was settled by Christian immigrants from the Alpha Crucis Foundation, who settled on Turin and its neighboring worlds. During the Long Night these worlds formed the Consolidation of Turin, a commonwealth united by strong belief in a shared religion.

Denebola straddles the border of the Third Imperium and the Solomani Confederation. During the Solomani Rim War, the Imperium conquered nine systems in the subsector, forming a narrow strip of occupied territory two parsecs wide along the spinward border. The remaining worlds are within the Solomani Confederation’s boundaries, although not all are member states. The two most important worlds in the subsector are the non-aligned Bali and Turin.
