Gračanka (Serbian: Грачанка) or Graçanka (Albanian: Graçankë) (also known as Gračanica/Graçanicë, Грачаница) is a river in Kosovo.[a] Its name is derived from Gradac, a toponym of fortified cities.[1] It flows into the Sitnica near the settlement of Vragoli.

Notes
- ^ The political status of Kosovo is disputed. Having unilaterally declared independence from Serbia in 2008, Kosovo is formally recognised as an independent state by 100 UN member states (with another 13 states recognising it at some point but then withdrawing their recognition) and 93 states not recognizing it, while Serbia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory.
