Better than the current anthem, austria is austrian 🇦🇹

Still being used today, as a presidential anthem I Believe

They are German, but they are Austrian First. Either way, Brothers Among Arms 🇩🇪❤️🇦🇹

[@einmensch-nt9si]

Since Austrians are Germans Austria is German and shall be Germany

[@9nniosalier1]

This anthem is better than the current one. (no offense)

Still being used to this day as an army anthem

[@friedrichwilhelmviktoralbert59]

@@ArchivumMusicum21Really I cant find anything suggesting it. Might i ask you to show me a source, as i would love to see it still being used.

When austria was formed there, it red colors become the same colors Latvia have.

[@Silvreina]

Austria and Latvia have different shades of red, and the width of the white-stripe is changed.

[@croatianwarmaster7872]

Austria will join Germany again. Only trough historical misfortune and foreign dictates was it split from Germany

[@floofylunafox]

It won't. Under the Austrian law and Austrian state treaty that's not allowed, and there's almost no sentiment among Austrians to join Germany. While we speak the same language, we are culturally very different and generally distant ourselves from Germany.

[@helmuthvonmoltke5518]

​@@floofylunafoxLaws can always be changed and public opinion is as fickle as the wind. The only reason why Austrians distance themselves from their German brothers is because they have been utterly cucked by the victors of both wars. It's honestly quite pathetic.

[@imperator_musicae4400]

@@helmuthvonmoltke5518 Agreed. Historical Revisionism has acted on this. While it's true that many patriots in the 19th century wanted a small german unification excluding the habsburgs, it's also true that many wanted the opposite, a big german solution, including the german-speaking territories of the new so called Austro-Hungarian Empire. So? We can only find middle ground on a cultural level, BUT it depends on how far back you want to consider something "german". Technically all germanic peoples have commonalities, so does the german CONTINENTAL group of people like Germans, Austrians, Dutch, Swiss germans. It really depends on what your idea of nation IS, and who you consider your compatriot. It's the same thing when you get asked: do you feel more european or x nationality? It can be either, or both! So you CAN be austrian and feel that you are part of a german group!

[@aegonat8539]

@@helmuthvonmoltke5518 @croatianwarmaster7872 Austria has been an independent state again for almost 80 years Of course, Austrians are partly ethnically German But after so long, unification makes no sense especially not if it hasn't worked twice...

​@@helmuthvonmoltke5518 Wir Österreicher werden uns nie freiwillig an Deutschland anschließen wir sind zu verschieden . In zweiten Welt Krieg sind wir wirtschaftlich erpresst worden. Die Geschichte zeigt es . Informieren sie sich über General Zehner, Theodor Körner usw.... . Unser alter Kaiser hatte auch große Bauchschmerzen das er mit Deutschland ein Bündnis einging aber der Druck von Frankreich war zu groß und auf die Italiener war kein Verlass. Österreich bleibt Österreich seit den Babenberger

Sounds like anthem of kind fantasy empire lol

[@-omarpasa7022]

Isn't the second picture very socialist?

[@ArchivumMusicum21]

Not really

[@Wubulixi]

The SPÖ used to be very strong and also for a united Germany

[@MonsieurWeevil]

Both Weimar Germany and the first Austrian republic were quite social-democrat dominated in their early years.

[@mcboat3467]

That represents workers and peasants under the capitalists and nobility. Quite realistic show of social facists that you would still be slaves of capitalists

[@Silvreina]

@@mcboat3467 The theory of "social fascism" is hilariously stupid. How can you look at something like Freistaat Preußen and think "It's not good enough waaaaaah!! They're all social fascists!" when they had literally banned the NSDAP and National Peoples' Party (Thank you, Minister Severing). The first and foremost priority of egalitarians is to reinforce social progressivism via anti-reactionary thought and activism. Going after the economic forces that create the seeds of fascism comes second when the fascism is firstly destroyed.

it would be better if it stayed that way..

[@axelhalbardier8874]

"Treu" means "faithfull", not "true"!

[@scooperdooper4097]

faithfull and true are very similar, and also treu is very clearly a cognate, which can easily cause confusion, like how "Karemell" in swedish is better translated as "candy" than "caramell" despite the fact the two have very similar meanings, and sound almost identical

[@MonsieurWeevil]

No, it means loyal.

[@purplerpenguin]

True, in English, can mean loyal or faithful.

[@purplerpenguin]

In my opinion, not a very good anthem. But yes, better than the current one. Ah well, we can't all have the Marseillaise.
