The Order of Deneb is an Imperial order of knighthood. The Order of Deneb was established by the Empress Jaqueline I with the creation of the Domain of Deneb in 589. However, due to the subsequent events of Jaqueline's assassination and the resulting Civil War, future emperors were rightly fearful of investing too much authority in new high noble titles. As a result, no Archduke of the Domain of Deneb was ever appointed until the elevation of Duke Norris Aella Aledon of Regina to that dignity in the year 1116, who officially established the capital of the Domain on the world of Mora.

Rank and file members of the order receive the title Companion of the Order of Deneb (C.D.). More distinguished members receive the title Knight of the Order of Deneb (K.D.). After 1116 the Grand Commander of the Order of Deneb (G.C.D) is Archduke Norris of Regina.

The badge of the order is taken from the personal arms of Archduke Norris, and consists of a bridled steed in white, rampant against a field of blue. At the time of the elevation of Duke Norris to the dignity of Archduke, its de facto headquarters were established in the administrative building used by Archduke Norris in Wavecrest City on Mora, the capital of the Domain of Deneb. Norris has yet to announce where the permanent headquarters of the order will be built.

The precedence of the order is right after that of the Order of Hlyuea and the Order of Gvadakoung.
