Dieno is a star system in Vega Sector. As of April 2654, it was neutral or uncontrolled but was located in Terran Confederation space.

Dieno is where the Terran-Kilrathi War officially began. In 2634, after five years of Kilrathi piracy, a Terran transport, the TCS Anna Magdalena, was attacked by a pair of Kilrathi starfighters while ferrying orphans to their new homes on Dieno. The transport was defenseless and thus easily destroyed, leaving no survivors. This act of terrorism finally convinced the Terran Confederation to declare war on the Kilrathi Empire.
