The village of Sopotsko is inhabited by an Orthodox Macedonian majority and a Sunni Muslim Albanian minority.[2] Sunni Albanians in Sopotsko traditionally highlighted their religious identity over a linguistic one having closer economic and social relations with Turks and Torbeš in the region and being distant from Orthodox Macedonians.[2] Over time these differences have disappeared through intermarriage, closer communal and cultural relations with Bektashi and other Sunni Prespa Albanian communities in the region.[2]
