Tetovo (Macedonian: Тетово; Albanian: Tetova, Tetovë; Turkish: Kalkandelen) is a city in the northwestern part of the Republic of North Macedonia, built on the foothills of Shar Mountain and divided by the Pena River.
The city covers an area of 1,080 km2 at 468 meters above sea level, with a population of 86,580 citizens in the municipality. It is home to the State University of Tetovo and South East European University. The city of Tetovo is the seat of Tetovo Municipality.
Tetovo has historically been home to multiple ethnic groups, however, as the home of multiple ethnic Albanian political parties and a population in which Albanians form a majority, Tetovo has become the unofficial capital and centre of a predominantly ethnic Albanian region which extends in an arc from Tetovo to Struga.
