Austria and its Cuisine

Austria, offilicially Republik Österreich (The Austrian Republic) is a Federal Parlimentary Republic on the southern border of Western Europe (and the historical region of Central Europe). Austria's capital (and largest city) is Vienna, situated on the Danube. Austria is one of six European countries that have declared permanent neutrality and one of the few countries that includes the concept of everlasting neutrality in its constitution. Austria has been a member of the United Nations since 1955 and joined the European Union in 1995. Austria's history is complex. In pre-Roman times Austria was at the heart of Celtic culture and many Cletic palce-names remain to this day. Following the fall of Rome there came Germanic colonization and Charlemagne conquered the country in 788, incorporating it as part of Eastern Francia. Subsequently the core areas that now encompass Austria were bequeathed to the house of Babenberg. With the death of Frederick II in 1246, the line of the Babenbergers went extinct and following the wars of succession the country came under the rule of the house of the Habsburgs who effectively controlled the country until 1916. The Habsburgs built Austria into the core of their Austor-Hungarian empire. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in 1914 led to the downfall and the end of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Following the First World War, the he Empire was broken up - Austria, with most of the German-speaking parts became a republic. The First Austrian Republic, lasted until 1933 when Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss dissolved parliament and established an autocratic regime tending towards Italian fascism. There followed civil war which only truly ended with German occupation on 12 March 1938. Venna fell on 13 April 1945 during the Soviet Vienna Offensive. This was just before the total collapse of the Third Reich, the defeat of Nazi Germany, the fall of Berlin, and the end of the war in May.

Today, Austria is one of the 10 richest countries in the world in terms of GDP per capita, has a well-developed social market economy, and a very high standard of living. Since its accession to the European Union the Austrian economy has become much more open and the country has benefited from considerable inward investment.

In the main, Austrian cuisine is derived from that of the Austro-Hungarian Empire overlaid on native traditions. There are also strong influences from Hungarian, Czech, Jewish, Italian and Bavarian cuisines. As such it can be argued that Austrian cuisine is one of the most natively trans-cultural in Europe.
