'''Veronaville''' ({{IPAc-en|v|ə|ˈ|r|o|ʊ|n|ə|ˌ|v|i|l}}) is one of the three original pre-made [[neighborhood#The Sims 2 neighborhoods|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 to the east, while the Montys live on the less prominent and more rural "Italian" side to the west. The compass directions are indicated by the description of Veronaville Market. 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 Monty|Hero]], and [[Olivia Monty]], who all may have been meant to live. The only exception to this is [[Contessa Capp]] (mother to [[Cordelia Capp|Cordelia]], [[Goneril Capp|Goneril]], [[Regan Capp|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.
