Iuliu Hirțea

	Iuliu Hirțea Iuliu Hirțea (13 April 1914—28 June 1978) was a Romanian bishop of the Greek-Catholic Church. Born in Vintere village, Bihor County, he attended high school in Beiuș, entering the seminary in Oradea upon graduation in 1931. A year later, he went to the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples in Rome, receiving a doctorate in theology. He was ordained a priest in Rome in 1937, by Bishop Valeriu Traian Frențiu. His return to Romania was marked by the handover to Hungary of Northern Transylvania in 1940. From that year until 1945, he was secretary to Frențiu at his headquarters in Beiuș. He then started teaching at the Oradea seminary, following the area's reincorporation into Romania at the end of World War II. In late 1948, the new communist regime outlawed the Greek-Catholic Church; Hirțea had been arrested in the spring of that year.

picture info	Târgu Ocna Prison Târgu Ocna Prison is a prison located in Târgu Ocna, Bacău County, Romania. History Early years In 1851, when Prince of Moldavia, Prince Grigore Alexandru Ghica visited the area, he was impressed by the poor conditions in which detainees worked at the local salt mine, ordering the construction of a new penitentiary. Until completion in 1855, they were housed at his castle. The prison was horseshoe-shaped, with entry through the castle gate. There were twelve rooms, each fitting 25–30 men, for a total of around 350.

picture info	People From Bihor County A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...
