+Technologeek92 Mozart, not Beethoven. We don’t claim Beethoven.

@105686269325623589958 Salzburg was part of the Holy Roman Empire when Mozart was born. So some people think he was German. It's all nonesense anyways. BUT it's a fact that Austria doesn't claim Beethoven.

+Horst Wrabetz I'm pretty sure that Salzburg was independent at that time. So technicaly Mozart was neither German nor Austrian.

+Comyu Calm down, there is no reason to be so angry. I'll admit that "independent" wasn't the right choice of words, but Salzburg was its own nation from 1328 to 1803 (during the time mozart was born), but it was also part of the Holy Roman Empire. Salzurg became the Habsburgs property in 1803 and part of the Austrian Empire in 1805. It was then taken over by Bavaria in 1810 and reunited with Austria in 1816. BTW I'm Austrian too.

Although Austrians are ethnically German and speak German. Ironic that Austrians.try to distance themselves from Germany because of the whole Nazi thing, but Hitler was from Austria and Austria was very pro-Nazi in those days too.

@@oilersridersbluejays Austrians do not distance so much from Germany because of the whole nazi stuff. For many Austrians Germany is like the weird and nerdy schoolmate nobody wants to hang out with but after school they get along somewhat good. Austrians distance from Germany because there are a lot of cultural differences and they are simply not the same. Love-hate relationship I would say.

Bjorn Ironside Off topic but 1 minute passed, the reply is quick.

Oh well, and I thought it had something to do with the fact, that in former times maps were not oriented to the north, but to the east... so upper austria had been placed to the upper side of the (hand drawn) map and lower austria was on the lower side on the map...

I think what it is presumed in the much more concise explanation by Mathias, is that upper and lower was often determined by the flow of the river, since water always flows downwards. In this specific case the River Danube flowing from west to east, the river Enns as a contributory river flowing from south to north, into the Danube forms the natural border of western/higher/ upper Austria from lower part of Austria along the river Danube.

This can be said about pretty much any region that uses lower or upper in the name (in German). Upper refers to higher altitude and lower refers to lower latitude (which then coincides with upstream/downstream of a river, since revers flow from higher elevation to lower elevation thanks to gravity)

TacoSeniour This is not true, the border between Lower and Upper Austria is the river Enns. So Upper Austria is named because it lies on the „upper side“ - originally called „Österreich ob der Enns“ when it was Habsburg territory which became Oberösterreich („Upper Austria“).

Actually it's the Enns river (originally they were called "Austria above the Enns" and "Austria below the Enns") that gave it its name, and that is also the river that separates them.

@@lamilumag Thought the same.

@@gorundonna is one hour supposed to be a lot? ;)

Well in short to quote wikipedia: "The Old High German name parallels the Middle Latin name ("eastern borderland"), alternatively called . The shorter Latinized name is first recorded in the 12th century. It has occasionally led to confusion, because, while it renders the Germanic word for "east" it is reminiscent of the native Latin term for "south", Latin australis meaning southern, and dates back to 2nd century legends of an "unknown southern land" (that is terra australis incognita)" and then turned to be the name giver for Australia. In the 90s some few postcards I sent back home, ended up in Australia, or sometimes, so I told them :-)

it sounds almost the same because austria is not called austria. its österreich in german. there is no connection between austria and its true name. its just a mispronounced version. the name comes from ostreich, which directly translates to eastern kingdom.

Australia comes from the Latin "Terra Australis" meaning "Southern Land." Austria is an anglicization of the German "Österreich" meaning "Eastern Realm" (it's still called this in German today) So it's merely a coincidence that the two country's names are similar.

Coz kangaroos enjoy dancing to walzes and polkas ( cheap joke, hahaha )

Its NOT am anglicization, the name Austria is far too old for that. Actually it´s a latinized version of the german Österreich. @@lifeofabronovich7792

It's a bit ironic to hear someone say how quiet the Austrian mountains are in winter, when that is the time of year when those mountains are the most crowded due to tourism.

Gott Sei Dank fand sie eine Familie auf der Straße und erlaubte ihr in einer Wohnung zu schlafen, die sie nicht vermieten konnten, weil bis auf 2 Zimmer die Wohnung eingestürzt war (Bombentreffer) Einerseits mussten die Jahre für sie und ihre Kinder absoluter Horror gewesen sein, andererseits, wenn ich mir anschaue wie heruntergewirtschaftet das Dorf von den Kommunisten wurde und wie schrecklich zurückgeblieben die Gegend heute ist, bin ich froh dass die Tschechen, die sie als hochschwangere Witwe aus ihrem Haus und Dorf gejagt haben, heute in einem leblosen Dorf voller Bruchbuden leben müssen.

Italy had a tendency to switch sides in history, both in WW1 and in WW2. (They were part of the axis powers in WW2 and part of the "Dreibund" from 1892 until WW1, but switched sides later) And they got rewarded after WW1 by getting south tyrol. But nowadays, most south tyroleans don't want to go back to Austria because they got good deals from both countries, they can for example also use the health care system of austria in tyrol or if they study in austria, they are counted as austrians (which means higher quotas in comparison to EU-member states).

ita-eng subber Okay Venetia makes sense, but why South Tyrol though? It was without argument completely Austrian and should I remind you how people were mistreated in the first decades after South Tyrol was Italian? They weren’t allowed to learn german at schools and were treated as second class citizens which makes you wonder why Italy wanted South Tyrol in the first place

Le funny meme That is mostly true. Due to the dictatorship there was a strong attempt to italianize the land that partially succeded. Italy in the first place didn't want the whole Südtirol as it is historically called but longed for the Trentino which is the southern part of Tyrol and was/is inhabited mostly by italians. I guess we got the hole of it as a "consolation" from the allies since at the time Italy was far more interested in the dalmatian coast (with italian minorities) that we didn't get in the end

He was only like 5 days in war

And if a Dog revokes his status as dog, it's still a Dog and Hitler is still Austrian even if you don't like it.

not offitioaly if you revoke your nationality you are nationalises and are not protected by any national laws he gained German nationnality though a technicality. his berth nationality may be Austrian but by the 1930s he was German

And still he is born in Austria and no law will change that. i believe he himself even said something along the lines, that citizenship is just a piece of paper. In the end it counts where you where born/what nationality are your parents are and so Hitler, born in Austria to Austrian parents, is.... exactly, Austrian. To me and to most everybody except, well Austrians, because they pray their "Hitler changes nationalities" mantra. Guess what, nobody cares, he is still Austrian to us. ;)

and yet he faught for Germany in world war one erning the iron cross i think. and your annalogy about a dog is malformd the dog can not freely chose if its a dof or not a human on the other hand can chose there nationality though live in the country of there choice and requesting netionality and citizenship of that nation.

And the most important thing is we don't have Kangaroos!!!

It's not even particularly Austrian, we say that up north, too. Still, he can't get everything right.

Well, it is something we do. Like, you are bored in the evening, so you ask someone lets go for a walk. You want a casual Date with someone, you ask them, to go for a walk, if you are not inviting them over for coffee. Spazieren is also something the youth does. 16 year olds will go for walks just as likely as old people do.

well, if you would have spent decades in this country (no, I didn't grow up there so I know the difference), you start to realize it's a metaphor for Austrian culture, much more than the German "spazieren gehen" and the English "going for a walk". "Gemma spaziern", implies: "we don't talk face to face most of the time (aka confront our differences or even debate anything) and use the surroundings as inspiration for casual remarks (or are they strategic pointers well hidden?). Bottom line is: to get to know each other without admitting it (which having lunch/dinner/coffee etc kinda would).. It all seams casual but everyone is scanning verbal (and often nonverbal) information for subtext. A relaxed tolerance of complete ambivalence (some may want to call it a bit oportunistic:-) is key in Austria. There are no German or English words for "JeinJain" (the spectrum between yes and no). But there is an Austrian one: "Eh". And without understanding it connotations, being socially accepted may prove to be rather difficult.

And yes, I would say that majority of ethnic Austrians have Slavic ancestry who were germanised by Bavarian Germans during the forceful christianisation of at the time fallen Charintian Kingdom and in the following centuries north Carinthia slowly became German speaking(Austrians), and south Charintians became Slovenians.
