Presentation of Popovac

The municipality of Popovac (2,427 inhabitants in 2001) is located some 30 km north of Osijek and 15 km west of Đakovo. The municipality is made of the villages of Popovac (1,079 inh.), Kneževo (970 inh.), and Branjina (322 inh.). Population includes somewhat over 20% of Serbs and somewhat less than 5% of Hungarians, who name the place Baranyabán, and 1.7% of Slovenes. During the 1990s war, Popovac, as the rest of Baranja, was held by rebels until 1997, when it was peacefully reintegrated to Croatia.
