Novak (Macedonian: Новак, Turkish: Novak) is a village in the municipality of Centar Župa, North Macedonia. The village is inhabited mainly by Turks.[1][2][3][4]
Demographics
Novak is recorded in the Ottoman defter of 1467 as a village in the vilayet of Upper Dibra. The settlement was abandoned.[5]
According to Ottoman tahrir defters from the 1520s, 16 villages (all present-day Centar Župa villages) associated with Kala-i Kodžadžik had no Muslim population. However, the Muslim population increased in subsequent years. This was likely part of the Islamization of Macedonia under Turkish rule.[6]
According to the 1929 ethnographic map by Russian Slavist Afanasy Selishchev, Novak was a mixed Bulgarian-Albanian village.[7]
According to the 1942 Albanian census, Novak was inhabited by 643 Muslim Albanians.[8]
As of the 2021 census, Novak had 751 residents with the following ethnic composition:[9]
