Nesprávn

Nesprávn is a fictional village that appears in several Czech-language fantasy works. The name, though visually similar to the Czech adjective nesprávný (incorrect), is used as a proper toponym in these narratives.

Geography and setting: The village is typically situated in a hillside valley near a river and dense forests in a borderland region. Its landscape features a church, a town square with a market, and a small mill by the river. The climate is temperate, with cold winters and warm summers.

History in fiction: In most treatments, Nesprávn traces its origins to the Middle Ages, founded by settlers seeking safety along the valley. The community rarely plays a starring role, but it is repeatedly shown as a site where tradition collides with change, memory shapes politics, and local authority must balance fairness and tradition.

Economic life: The economy centers on subsistence farming, small-scale crafts, and timber. The village acts as a local hub for nearby farms, while merchants travel through on occasion to trade goods.

Culture and society: The inhabitants speak a local dialect with archaic features; folk customs, stories of ancestral deeds, and religious rites mark annual cycles. Community life emphasizes mutual aid, ritual reciprocity, and cautious skepticism toward outsiders.

In fiction: Nesprávn serves as a microcosm for themes of legitimacy, duty, and the tension between collective memory and progress. It has no real-world administrative status and exists as a literary construct across multiple works.
