Belusic

Belušić exists because the Levač region needed villages to work its fertile basin—and because some settlements accumulate population while others disperse. This village of 934 in Rekovac municipality sits in the Pomoravlje District, the agricultural heartland where the Great Morava's tributaries create some of Serbia's most productive farmland. The Levač (from 'lev,' meaning lion, or possibly a Slavic term for 'left bank') has been continuously settled since medieval times.

The Rekovac municipality context defines Belušić's identity. Unlike the industrial municipalities to the north or the monastic districts to the southwest, Rekovac is almost purely agricultural—corn, wheat, and livestock on small family farms. Belušić is one of dozens of villages in this pattern, distinguished mainly by its relative population stability: 934 is substantial for rural Serbia, suggesting either natural growth or success in retaining residents who might otherwise migrate.

Neighboring villages like Brajinovac and Sekurič (3 kilometers to the northeast) create a network of settlements sharing schools, markets, and administrative services. By 2026, Belušić's future tracks the broader Pomoravlje question: whether agricultural communities can develop processing industries or tourism attractions, or whether they'll continue exporting young people to Belgrade while importing seasonal workers for harvest.
