Von Berke
{{unreferenced, date=June 2011 Berke ( hu, nagybarkóci Berke; german: Berke von Nagybarkóc) family was an old Hungarian noble family in the Slovene March ( Vas County, nowadays: Prekmurje, Slovenia). They were landowners and bankers. On 10 December 1609 Ambrosius Berke was elevated into nobility, however older documents shows that this might be only a confirmation of nobility, because in years 1417 and 1427 we can find mentions of ''Péter de Berke'' and ''Jakab Berke'', who were ''homo regius (királyi ember)''. In 1610 the family was written into Vas County noble register. In 1690 king Leopold I donated the place of Nagybarkóc to Péter Berke. At the end of the 19th century they have established a bank in Vas County. Balaž Berke, Ferenc Berke Ferenc Xaver Berke de Nagybarkóc ( sl, Franc Berke; Prekmurje Slovene: ''Ferenc Xaver Berke''; c. 1764 – 10 February 1841) was a Hungarian Slovene Lutheran pastor and writer.

Slovene March (Kingdom Of Hungary)
The Slovene March or Slovene krajina ( sl, Slovenska krajina, hu, Vendvidék, Szlovenszka krajina, Szlovén krajina) was the traditional denomination of the Slovene-speaking areas of the Vas and Zala County in the Kingdom of Hungary from the late 18th century until the Treaty of Trianon in 1919. It comprised approximately two-thirds of modern Prekmurje, Slovenia, and the modern area between the current Slovenian-Hungarian border and the town of Szentgotthárd, where Hungarian Slovenes still live. In Hungarian, the latter area is still known as Vendvidék, which is the Hungarian denomination for the Slovene March, while in Slovene it is referred as ''Porabje'' (literally, 'the area along the Rába river'). It should not be confused with the medieval Slovene (or Windic) March of the Holy Roman Empire which was located in the present-day south-east Slovenia, roughly in the areas of the regions of Lower Carniola, White Carniola and Lower Sava Valley.

Prekmurje Slovenes
The Prekmurje Slovenes ( sl, Prekmurci,''Prekmürci, Prekmörci, Prekmörge'') are Slovenes from Prekmurje in Slovenia and Vendvidék and Somogy in Hungary. The Prekmurje Slovenes speak the Prekmurje Slovene dialect and have a common culture. The Hungarian Slovenes ''(Porabski Slovenci)'' and Somogy Slovenes also speak the Prekmurje Slovene dialect. Origins The Prekmurje Slovenes are descendants of the Slovenes of Lower Pannonia (Slovene ''Spodnja Panonija'', Prekmurje dialect ''Spoudnja Panonija'', hu, Alsó-Pannónia), who were vassals of the Frankish Empire in the 9th century. The Magyars conquered Lower Pannonia in 900, and many of the Slovenes were assimilated. However, the Prekmurje Slovenes in the vicinity of the Mura River maintained their identity. Middle Ages The dialect spoken by the Prekmurje Slovenes, in the absence of contacts with other Slovenes, began to diverge from the standard Slovene (Carniolan) dialect. Nevertheless, contacts were maintained with o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
