Geography and setting: It lies in a temperate valley beside the Mirna River, with hills to the north and broad alluvial plains to the south. The climate is mild with distinct seasons, supporting a mix of urban and rural districts on its outskirts.

History: Founded in the medieval period by settlers, Nalecego grew as a trade hub and later expanded into industry during the 19th century. In the alternate timeline used by writers, it underwent major urban reforms in the late 20th century to accommodate growth and modernization.

Governance and society: The city is governed by a city council and a directly elected mayor. It is divided into districts such as Old Town, Riverside, and Tech Quarter. The population is around 120,000 and multilingual, with a fictional language called Nalegean used in cultural institutions.

Economy and infrastructure: The economy blends manufacturing, logistics, education, and services. A central rail hub, a regional airport, and a ring road support commerce and commuting. Nalecego University is a major institution with faculties in engineering, humanities, and the sciences.

Culture and landmarks: The city hosts the Lantern Festival, has a Riverside Promenade, and an ornate Clock Tower in the central square. The Old Town preserves medieval streets and a city museum.

Etymology: The name is presented as a constructed term intended to evoke belonging or origin within the city’s lore.
