| - Veronaville ist eine der drei Standard-Nachbarschaften in Die Sims 2. Der Name der Stadt basiert auf das italienische Verona, dem Schauplatz des Dramas Romeo und Julia von William Shakespeare. Generell unterscheidet sich diese Nachbarschaft von den restlichen, da die meisten Sims, ob lebend oder nicht, an fiktive Charaktere aus dessen Werken angelehnt sind, und die Storyline am Anfang des Spiels ist klar an Romeo und Julia angelehnt.

The name of the town comes from Verona, the fictional town of Romeo and Juliet, based upon a real town in Italy. The town itself is based on a European setting, with a viaduct near the north end and a canal dividing the town into two architecturally different sections, the "English" side, featuring Tudor homes reminiscent of Shakespeare's hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon, and the "Italian" side, featuring Mediterranean villa-style homes of Verona. This divide clearly suits the divide between the two main families, the Capps and the Montys (meant to represent the Capulets and the Montagues of Romeo and Juliet) and also represents the divide in the cultures of the two families,

- Veronaville ( /vəˈrɵʊnəˌvil/) is one of the three original pre-made neighborhoods shipped with The Sims 2 base game. The name of the town comes from Verona, the fictional town of Romeo and Juliet, based upon a real town in Italy. The town itself is based on a European setting, with a viaduct near the north end and a canal dividing the town into two architecturally different sections, the "English" side, featuring Tudor homes reminiscent of Shakespeare's hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon, and the "Italian" side, featuring Mediterranean villa-style homes of Verona. This divide clearly suits the divide between the two main families, the Capps and the Montys (meant to represent the Capulets and the Montagues of Romeo and Juliet) and also represents the divide in the cultures of the two families, The Capulets being more North European and the Montagues being more Southern European. The Capps live on the wealthier and more prominent "English" side, while the Montys live on the less prominent and more rural "Italian" side. The other family, the Summerdreams, are the neutral family, yet they live on the "English" area of town. Strangely, the Montys are the only family to live on the "Italian" side. Even though there are just three pre-made families in Veronaville, the total population including Townies numbers 186 Sims. All of the Sims', streets', and houses' names are based on Shakespeare's plays. The Summerdreams, for example, are from A Midsummer Night's Dream. Oddly, almost all of the deceased parents of any pre-made Sim in Veronaville died young, in their adult years, unlike the Pleasantview and Strangetown Sims, most of which feature deceased elder Sims. Along with this are the parents of Contessa Capp, Hero, and Olivia Monty, who all may have been meant to live. The only exception to this rule are Contessa Capp (mother to Cordelia, Goneril, Regan, and Kent Capp) who died as an elder. Whether this is due to the family feud of the Capps and Montys or something else entirely remains unsolved. Perhaps the young deaths of Veronaville Sims tie in with the shorter life expectancy of Shakespeare's time. Despite the feud between the Capps and the Montys, most of the youth seem to be friends or love interests.
