History

From 1795, Austria became the birthplace of classical music. The Battle of Vienna in 1683 interrupted the raid of the Ottoman Empire into Europe. The name Ostarrîchi (Austria) has been in use since 996 AD.

Following the First Republic, Austrofascism (The Fatherland Front) tried to keep Austria independent from the German Reich (the name of the German nation state that existed from 1871 to 1945).
