The central settlement is Cugir ({{langx|hu|Kudzsir}}, {{langx|de|Kudschir}}, {{langx|tr|Kuçir}}).
The Cugir River's old Magyar name is ''Kenyér'' (bread), which gave rise to the name ''Breadfield''. The region's borders to the south are the Cugir Mountains, to the north the Mureș River, to the west Hunedoara County, and to the east the Sebeș River. thumb|1870 sketch by Miklós Nagy The area is a fertile plain. Formerly, Breadfield's population was largely Saxons,{{When|date=March 2025}} but today it is chiefly Romanians. In 1479 the Hungarians scored a victory over the Ottoman Army in the Battle of Breadfield, near Șibot. In remembrance of the victory, Stephen V Báthory built a chapel.
