I don't know why this become such big debate recently, since you can argue most flags throughout history used to represent certain countries, aren't what we would today consider national flags or were used for different purposes.

What's crazier is that it DOES make sense : The austrian empire is a bureaucratic state while the holy roman empire, beside bring doomed to die, was a feudal collection of independent polities So the austrian empire was, from the HRE's perspective, not do different than the Kingdom of Prussia, which also held land both within and out of the HRE

Nice of you to keep the map zoomed out even after Austria lost all its land after 1918 so you can easily update it to show when Austria inevitably reconquers Bosnia.

Great video as always! However, there is one misleading thing in the infobox on the right, which is the use of Austria-Hungary's civil ensign (i.e. the flag containing the colors of modern austrian and hungarian flag and their respective coats of arms, which in reality was used only by civilian and merchant ships). Here's a video explaining the problem with the civil ensign: ruclips.net/video/HgvB9aW98z8/видео.htmlsi=etqsJmXXDtdYquL0 Also, there is a small error with the map, and that is the fact that Bosnia and Herzegovina had a second corridor to the Adriatic Sea located where now the border between Croatia and Montenegro exists. It existed as administrative boundary until 1940's, when it was transferred to Montenegro (as part of Yugoslavia).
I also take issue with the civil ensign being used as a empire wide flag, the flag does represent "Austria-Hungary" but doesn't encompasses the whole empire
would be great to add the EU after a certain date for these countries' history, as it is such an important international organization to be part of and that actually inlfuence lots of political decisions, domestically and internationally
Very very very (very) technically, there never was an 'Austrian Empire'. Which sounds like an odd thing to state, but in German, the term 'Kaiserreich Osterreich', which would literally mean 'Empire of Austria' was never used, and the term 'Kaiserstum Osterreich' (which is used in this video) was intentionally used instead. 'Kaiserstum' has no direct translation in English-it would roughly mean something like 'Emperordom of Austria', and this is the term used in the 1848 constitution. The reason 'Kaiserreich Osterreich' was never used-not even after the Ausgleich of 1867; was twofold: first, the Czech and Polish nobility and estates (parliaments) within the Austrian half of the Empire were opposed to any such naming, and the second is because it was never meant to refer to a ruler of a notional Austrian state, but, like the title of 'German Emperor', sort-of referred to his dynasty rather than the state he ruled-the House of Habsburg-Lorraine was the 'House of Austria'. After 1867, the *very* unwieldy name 'The Kingdoms and Lands Represented in the Imperial Council' (ie, the Parliament of the Austrian half of the Empire) was the consistent official name, and it wasn't until 1915 that a rescript from the Emperor okayed the formal use of the term 'Austria' (note no descriptor like 'Empire/Kaiserreich'-just 'Austria' alone) for the first time.
An Underrated Empire in my eyes. If the Serbs wouldn‘t have assassinated Franz Ferdinand, the Empire could have survived Way longer. I‘m totally Impressed how especially the Austrian Part dealt with the Many Ethnicities, especially for it’s Time and Age (and in comparison To the Russian Empire)
@@TheAustrianAnimations87 Not really. Ww1 would have started in a different way. Possibly even a second world war but not necessarily just probably. Even with no world wars (incredible unlikely) they would still have fallen to nationalism from the inside. You see the balkan countries had already become independent from the ottomans, there is no way the minorities of austria wouldn't try the same
What do you mean, he got that right. Also German-Austria only lasted from 1918-19 (as correctly shown here), with the name changed to Republic of Austria in October 1919 after signing the Treaty of Saint Germain.
About the possibility of reforming the Habsburg Empire: The Habsburg Empire would not survive the necessary reforms, the Hungarians would not accept lowering their status within the empire, no matter what, and it would be simply treason to try to take away Hungarian privileges even if Austria-Hungary had been on the winning side of WW1, because it would be the same as spitting on all Hungarian sacrifices. And there is also the issue of the Germans, while the old regime reigned, the monarch and the nobility did not care about the nationality of the subjects, but if you make a reform to give equal rights to anyone, this becomes more relevant, because any reform in Austria would be the same as removing the position of dominance of the Austrian Germans, something that would be somewhat manageable if the overwhelming shadow of the German Reich did not exist, give the relative small numbers of Austrians Germans on the empire, but that is not the case, the Austrian Germans accepted the old regime in exchange for privileges within the empire, but lowering them to the level of the like the Czechs? A comprehensive reform of the Habsburg Empire would be seen as a betrayal by both the Austrian Germans and Hungarian nationalities, reform was good for the monarchy and for the ideia of the "empire", but not everyone was be better of for it. The Hungarians would declare independence, and the Germans would cry out for Anchluss with the German Reich, so no, the Habsburg Empire is impossible to reform in the age of nationalism, and the old regime will not survive until an Liberal age came forth.
The Hungarians actually did accept a Triple Monarchy in October 1918 after some hesistation, but it was too late then. And no, the idea of an Anschluss was never popular among the Austrian elites until the Habsburg Monarchy collapsed. The Habsburg Empire had *much better* chances to survive than Russia or the Ottoman Empire.
