A Rich, medium population water world located in the Iiradu Subsector of Dagudashaag Sector. Zugaa is a member of the Imperium.

Zugaa is governed by a civil service bureaucracy which evolved out of the increasing links between the seven large corporations which dominated the Zugaan economy, and the officals of government. The government is formally known as the Office of Commerce and Government, or ConGov, and informally as Kurrubiish. Kurrubissh is also the name of a large and ponderous cetacean creature native to Zugaa.

Zugaa's wealth is founded upon the harvesting and export of Millions, a krill-like plankton which has renowned medical properties and exported for pharmaceutical manufacturing throughout the sector. The Millions trade is carefully regulated by ConGov. This regulation has allowed ConGov to assume many of the roles of Zugaan corporations Geshemirk and KuyperCorp, both of which built their wealth on the Millions trade. Rumors in Zugaan government circles around Imperial corporations trying to insert themselves into the Zugaan trade process are constant.

One of the largest scandals in recent Zugaa history revolved around a senior economic planner leaking details of trade planning to several outside corporations.

In addition to the Millions farming industry, Zugaa produces and exports high quality submersibles and diving equipment. There is a very large industry manufacturing food products from kelp and farmed fish for off-world export.

Most of the population of Zugaa live in archologies build in the shallow water around the few islands which rise above the ocean. The islands themselves are generally reserved as playgrounds for the very rich and powerful. Many of the people involved in the processed food production industry live in archologies in the deep ocean, with some people whom have never seen the surface.

One of the newest projects under discussion is a floating town, using Grav floater to fly the town through the air.
