Boreča
Boreča (pronounced [bɔˈɾeːtʃa]; Hungarian: Borháza[2]) is a village in the Municipality of Gornji Petrovci in the Prekmurje region of Slovenia. Unlike the surrounding area, the village is relatively nucleated and surrounded by a pine forest.[3] The local church is built southeast of the village and is a Late Gothic building dating to 1521. It has a relatively high nave with a narrower polygonal sanctuary. In 1739 its interior was refurbished in the Baroque style. It is dedicated to Saint Anne and belongs to the Murska Sobota Diocese.[4] There is a Catholic cemetery next to the church. The Lutheran cemetery lies beyond it. There is also a wooden Lutheran belfry in the village.

- József Ficzkó (a.k.a. Jožef Ficko) (1772–1843), Burgenland Croatian writer
gollark: Oh, this is interesting, a difference in *bitops* I ended up noticing because of the potatOS RNG system.
gollark: I'm... on an old version, oops.
gollark: Ah. It looks like the issue is that PotatOS's registry expects `rb` mode handles to have `readAll` and CraftOS-PC does not provide this, even though potatOS *itself* has fallbacks.
gollark: I think this is due to differences in `rb` mode handling.
gollark: I love how potatOS ends up randomly fuzz-testing these things.
