Kuguli, also known as Vaal, is an agricultural Imperial world located in Zhemi Subsector of Daibei Sector. Though listed as an agricultural planet, Vaal also has some of the richest Lanthanum deposits in the sector. This small planet is so rich in heavy metals that its volcanoes exhale lead oxides regularly, tainting the dense atmosphere. A few plants have adapted themselves to remove this taint and make metabolic use of it. These few are, of course, not edible by the human populace.

The lanthanum deposits make Vaal an attractive target for Solomani Confederation expansion. The Imperial Naval Base at Liva (Daibei 0424) has kept a close eye on the system and its near neighbors.
