The home of several ethnic Albanian political parties and a population in which Albanians form a relative majority, Tetovo has become the "unofficial capital" of a predominantly Albanian region which extends in an arc from Tetovo to Debar. Tetovo is also the headquarters of the main Albanian-centred political parties, the Democratic Union for Integration and the Democratic Party of Albanians. Just outside of Tetovo is the South East European University, Macedonia’s third largest university after Skopje and Bitola. Tetovo is also home to the State University of Tetovo.
