Jászalsószentgyörgy
Jászalsószentgyörgy is a village in Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok county, in the Northern Great Plain region of central Hungary. History As the carved stones found at the site of the first settlement of the village - where the ancestors lived for 300 years - prove, there must have been a church in the so-called "Telken" as well. There is a written record from 1389 - some researchers claim - which states: "a Jassic dwelling again bears the name of Saint George." This does not indicate the time of the village's formation but rather that the settlement built a church in honor of Saint George at that time and named the village accordingly. In 1686, after the end of the Turkish occupation, and with no authorities or justice in place, internal conflicts erupted among the settlements over land ownership. Szentgyörgy was no exception to this. It was in constant conflict with Ladány. The conflicts escalated to the point where the people of Ladány set fire to the dwelling known as "Telek" o ...

Area
Area is the measure of a region's size on a surface. The area of a plane region or ''plane area'' refers to the area of a shape or planar lamina, while '' surface area'' refers to the area of an open surface or the boundary of a three-dimensional object. Area can be understood as the amount of material with a given thickness that would be necessary to fashion a model of the shape, or the amount of paint necessary to cover the surface with a single coat. It is the two-dimensional analogue of the length of a curve (a one-dimensional concept) or the volume of a solid (a three-dimensional concept). Two different regions may have the same area (as in squaring the circle); by synecdoche, "area" sometimes is used to refer to the region, as in a " polygonal area". The area of a shape can be measured by comparing the shape to squares of a fixed size. In the International System of Units (SI), the standard unit of area is the square metre (written as m2), which is the area o ...
