Reşiţa (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈreʃit͡sa]; German: Reschitz; Croatian: Rešica; Hungarian: Resicabánya; Serbian: Решица or Rešica; Czech: Rešice) is a city in western Romania and the capital of Caraş-Severin County, in the Banat region. Its 2004 population was 83,985.

The name of Reşiţa, might comes from the Latin recitia, meaning "cold spring", as the great historian Nicolae Iorga once suggested, presuming that the Romans gave this name to Resita, from a water spring on the Doman valley. A much more plausibile version, according to Iorgu Iordan, would be that the name is actually coming from a Slavic word: people living in the neighbour village of Caraşova 15 km away, referring to this place, that in those days was a similar village to theirs, as being „u rečice” (at the creek). It can also be noted that almost all Slavic countries have places with the name of Rečice (pronounced Reciţe in Romanian).

Dragana Mirković, Serbian Cyrillic: Драгана Мирковић, pronounced [drǎɡana mǐːrkɔ̝v̞it͡ɕ], (born 18 January 1968) is a Serbian pop-folk singer. She is very popular in Ex-Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Romania, Greece and Turkey. She is considered to be the biggest female music star in ex-Yugoslavia but also one of the biggest stars ever in the Balkans along with Lepa Brena and Ceca Raznatovic, and many consider her the greatest star of the 90's and one of the greatest Serbian stars ever.

She was born on 18 January 1968, in Kasidol, a village in Serbia, Yugoslavia and is the youngest of two children. As a child, she lived with her parents, her grandparents, and her sister, Dušica. She studied music due to her grandfather Dragutin, whom Dragana listened to when he played the accordion. At 5 years old she learned to her first song "Devojka sokolu zulum učinila" (This girl made a warrior violent). A story about a talented girl from Kasidol quickly spread and got to the important people in the world of music. Target people of "Diskos" came into the house of Dragana's parents suggesting them that dragana should record a CD. Dragana was shocked. Singing for her was just fun, and her dream was to complete the faculty, learn English, become a tour guide and travel through the world. Her dreams were made. She speaks fluent English (even in the movie "Sweet dreams of" she sang in English), she has traveled the world, but not as a tour guide, but as a major Yugoslav, now Serbian star!
