Etymology: The name Veszek is presented as derived from the local language, Vesin, meaning 'meeting place,' though as a fictional construct it serves as a placeholder to demonstrate toponymic notes.

Geography: Veszek covers about 8.5 square kilometers. The climate is temperate with warm summers and cold winters. The terrain is rolling fields interspersed with groves and a network of minor streams feeding the river.

History: The settlement dates to the 16th century in this imagined setting. It grew around a crossroads and a parish church. In the 19th century, small industries emerged, and the postwar period brought road improvements and school consolidation.

Demographics and economy: The population is around 1,200 residents. The economy relies on agriculture—grain and dairy—along with a light manufacturing workshop and local retail. Public services include a primary school, a library, and a community clinic.

Culture and today: Veszek hosts a yearly harvest festival and a small museum about regional crafts. Transportation is served by regional bus lines; the village is connected to nearby towns via a county road network. Notable residents are fictional.
