Orahovac

Orahovac (Ораховац; Albanian Rahovec or Rahoveci) is a town located in Kosovo, Serbia and Montenegro, at 42.41° North, 20.66° East. Its name stems from the word "walnut" in Serbian. In 2003 the town had a total population of 23,800. It is nominally governed as part of the Serbian autonomous province of Kosovo and Metohija but in practice is under the authority of the United Nations following the 1999 Kosovo War.
