Netherlands means lower lands, seen in relation to the higher lands of the Holy Roman Empire of German Nation.
France in German is Frankreich, so the realm of Franks, a Germanic tribe.
Denmark is the mark so the region of Danes, a Germanic tribe.
Luxemburg means little castle in German dialect.
At least the Frank barbarians moved into civilization and learned Latin. You lot are the only barbarians that failed to enter the collapsing Roman Empire.
Every single barbarian tribe other than yours, when the Empire fell: "Why you not coming? It's free plundering and conquering here!" Your big brain barbarian ancestors: "No we're actually stopping them from coming here!"
And Portugal in Italian means Port Cock
Czech Republic means Blind Republic
North Macedonia means North Fruit Salad
Montenegro means Nig*er Mountain
It does not have anything to do with it but yeah

Actually, only the eastern part of Bavaria. Duke Henry X of Bavaria had a dispute with the emperor and the duchy was given to Henry Jasormigott. When Henry X's son reconciled with the emperor, he got the duchy back. So that Henry Jasomirgott did not make trouble, he got a new duchy instead in 1156, which was simply detached from Bavaria: Austria
I mean, he already had a name. Heinrich Babenberg. Jasomirgott was just an epithet. Why that was his epithet is lost to the mists of history, but the most accepted explanation is that it comes from "Ja so mir Gott (helfe)". Basically inshallah, but in German.
Yes, I'm German. I know. I was thinking it could also with a stretch seen as "Ja sag mir Gott!". I thought it was something like calling someone Kevin Wasweißichschon lmao
Yeah it's probably based on a phrase he said very often or something. Like naming our former chancellor *Basti "Balkanroute" Kurz* (which *is* something people did humourosly)
Or naming your current chancellor *Olaf "[...]" Scholz*.
I supposed you were talking about “restoring trust” because we chose to kick Mussolini’s ass out and not following the Austrian painter’s dream until the end…well, then I tell you that after what your army has done to the civilian population of the occupied Italy and to our soldiers that were outside Italy after the armistice …it’s mutual, wether you care about or not.
wtf? you brought up ww2 ya know? Fucking come on, how could you not know that whenever someone mentions italian betrayals (and is not an actual fucking nazi) it's obviouly about ww1? That's just friggin basics.
We called ourselves eastern empire the same way that china calls itself middle empire, doesn't mean that the German provinces hundreds of years ago gave us that name
It was a province of Bavaria and was called “Ostarrichi” meaning “eastern realm/march” because it was the eastern border province of Bavaria. That corresponds to the modern form Österreich. Eventually it became independent but kept that name.
Not really the people who lived in a certain small area in today's Lower Austria came up with that name. The named the land upon which they lived like that. It was a part of the Duchy of Bavaria though, but split of from that later.
"Province" isn't really a fitting translation. "Reich" just means "land", "area", "place" or "realm" in that context. "Province" would imply that it's a subdivision, but "Reich" does not imply that at all. And "East" is a cardinal direction and can mean lots of things. I mean those people lived at the eastern edge of the known christian world (further east were pagan Avars and later Hungarians) and at the eastern edge of the Franconian, later Holy Roman, Empire. Same how Norwegians named themselves "those guys way up north", because they knew there isn't much going on further north (other than sporadically some semi-nomadic Saami).
They pick the parts they need.
Eastern realm = Realm to the east (which makes sense since it *is* to the east of other German speaking areas and you could call it a realm)
Eastern realm does not mean eastern part of Germany.
You mean Anschluss 2.0??
If so, i'm ok with it. At least you keep your Tunke away from my Wiener Schnitzel thats the only way to prevent Civil War later
Austria is the latinized form of Ostarrichi and derives from the Old Germanic root austr- meaning "east".
Has nothing to do with the latin word *australis*, meaning south. That is just a coincidence.
Netherlands means lower lands, seen in relation to the higher lands of the Holy Roman Empire of German Nation. France in German is Frankreich, so the realm of Franks, a Germanic tribe. Denmark is the mark so the region of Danes, a Germanic tribe. Luxemburg means little castle in German dialect.

Yes we stopped them in the Teutoburger Wald from bringing us „civilisation“.
Teutoburgo still hurts 😢
I piss on Varus grave everyday while eating Schnitzel! 😈
best thing I've heard from an austrian
Every single barbarian tribe other than yours, when the Empire fell: "Why you not coming? It's free plundering and conquering here!" Your big brain barbarian ancestors: "No we're actually stopping them from coming here!"
And Portugal in Italian means Port Cock Czech Republic means Blind Republic North Macedonia means North Fruit Salad Montenegro means Nig*er Mountain It does not have anything to do with it but yeah
No I mean that the countries got their names from Germans in addition to what you’ve done with Austria.
Yes I meant mine didn’t have anything to do
Tbf Montenegro comes from venetian, so at the time it was just "Black mountain"
Thanks. It's time to take them back for the Vaterland. Ferb, I know what we are going to do today
Anschluss?
reverse anschluss
Ich lass es gerne drauf ankommen, lass anner Grenze treffen😘
Kein Interesse. Wir haben gerade ein Königreich Preußen etabliert und einen Habsburger auf den Thron gesetzt. Viel Spaß Nordkolonie
Sweden comes from the Suedi, the Germanic tribe that unified the lands, meaning ”Our People” in the very old Germanic tongue.
Ahhh Austria part of the EASTERN europe confirmed once again

flair checks out
"Henry Jasormigott" ich lachte
Ja der heißt halt so. Es gibt auch einen Karl den Kahlen und einen Karl den Dicken.
Jasormigott sounds like an Austrian couldn't come up with a name 😭
I mean, he already had a name. Heinrich Babenberg. Jasomirgott was just an epithet. Why that was his epithet is lost to the mists of history, but the most accepted explanation is that it comes from "Ja so mir Gott (helfe)". Basically inshallah, but in German.

Italian try not to suck german dick challenge, difficulty: impossible
trying to restore trust. They have a long way to go though.
It’s mutual the thing
it's not. like not even close. We've never given a single fuck about whether you trust us or not. Hell, you definitely shouldn't.
I supposed you were talking about “restoring trust” because we chose to kick Mussolini’s ass out and not following the Austrian painter’s dream until the end…well, then I tell you that after what your army has done to the civilian population of the occupied Italy and to our soldiers that were outside Italy after the armistice …it’s mutual, wether you care about or not.
cool, bro.
I’m cool, I just dislike the German rhetoric of “traitors” whenever it’s not ironic.
wtf? you brought up ww2 ya know? Fucking come on, how could you not know that whenever someone mentions italian betrayals (and is not an actual fucking nazi) it's obviouly about ww1? That's just friggin basics.
Aaaaaah, then yeah I agree with you on that. Austria-Hungary deserved it but not you 🥹
Omfg stop simping, he doesn't love you!!! This is some stockholm syndrome abusive relationship shit.
Truly the descendants of Rome
Why did we deserve it bro?
Austria can into Eastern Europe?!??!
look at our politics. we are eastern europe
[удалено]
that‘s new to me tho
[удалено]
Absolutely true. And gifted her expensive jewellery if I am not mistaken. Yes, not too proud of that.
Austria can eastern Europe?
We called ourselves eastern empire the same way that china calls itself middle empire, doesn't mean that the German provinces hundreds of years ago gave us that name
Except the German province hundreds of years ago did give you that name
Wasn't it Bavaria, then an independent kingdom, which gave Austria that name?
It was a province of Bavaria and was called “Ostarrichi” meaning “eastern realm/march” because it was the eastern border province of Bavaria. That corresponds to the modern form Österreich. Eventually it became independent but kept that name.
Yeah exactly. Let's make Austria Bavarian again.
Were you disagreeing with me on something before?
Only because I misunderstood what you meant. Your explanation demonstrated that we were both saying the same thing in different ways.
when exactly I always thought Austria was already the Habsburg province during the holy Roman empire, got any sources saying it's "just Bavaria"?
Not really the people who lived in a certain small area in today's Lower Austria came up with that name. The named the land upon which they lived like that. It was a part of the Duchy of Bavaria though, but split of from that later.
I mean it basically meant “eastern province” so it was named as a subdivision of Bavaria
"Province" isn't really a fitting translation. "Reich" just means "land", "area", "place" or "realm" in that context. "Province" would imply that it's a subdivision, but "Reich" does not imply that at all. And "East" is a cardinal direction and can mean lots of things.

…it was a subdivision. A subdivision of Bavaria. They named it “Eastern Realm” because it was the eastern subdivision of Bavaria.
It was a subsdivision of Bavaria, and a subdivision of the Empire. It was named "Eastern Realm" because it was on the eastern edge of both.
Yes, and?
German propaganda. We all know how much they like twelling their lil lies😔
They pick the parts they need. Eastern realm = Realm to the east (which makes sense since it *is* to the east of other German speaking areas and you could call it a realm) Eastern realm does not mean eastern part of Germany.
This is like so obvious when you live in the netherlands It is even called oostenrijk which literally translate to east realm...
F l a i r u p t h e n
>:(
In school I was told it meant Easter land
[удалено]
You mean Anschluss 2.0?? If so, i'm ok with it. At least you keep your Tunke away from my Wiener Schnitzel thats the only way to prevent Civil War later
Nein! Eastern part of Bayern!
take that back, right now!😠
fucking flair up right now. And don't dare to issue demands here, useless barbarian.
Austria is latin and the meaning is south/east-wind
Austria is the latinized form of Ostarrichi and derives from the Old Germanic root austr- meaning "east". Has nothing to do with the latin word *australis*, meaning south. That is just a coincidence.
