The reason why Mussolini approved the annexation of Austria, besides the alliance after the Ethiopian war, was because Hitler promised that he would renounce all claims to south Tyrol and even relocate all of its inhabitants who didn’t want to stay in Italy.

Saying Austria was separate from Germany for centuries is just plain incorrect. At best you can date Austria's separation to the rest of Germany to 1866 when Prussia broke the German Confederation, which the Austrian Emperor was President. Protestant Prussia purposely pushed catholic Austria away so Prussia could unite Germany and then the Habsburgs tried to stay independent from the Hohenzollern Germany so the Habsburgs would remain an imperial power. The idea that Austrians are not German at all is a post WWII idea.

0:15 Austria had NOT been separate from Germany for hundreds of years. Until 1866 the German Confederation, which included the German-speaking parts of Austria, and then some (most notably Bohemia and Moravia), was essentially synonymous with Germany. Hence why you have things like the German Civil War being another name for the Austro-Prussian War of 1866. Vienna had been the de facto capital of Germany for centuries, with the HRE becoming synonymous with the concept of Germany in the Middle Ages. To quote Wikipedia: "From 1250 onward, the association between "Germans" and the whole Empire became stronger. [...] At the same time, the replacement of Latin with German in official documents entrenched the German character of the empire at large. In 1474 the term "Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation" appeared, becoming more common after 1512. However, even after 1560, only 1 in 9 official documents mention "Germany", and most omitted the rest as well and simply called it "the Empire". In 1544 the Cosmographia (Sebastian Münster) was published, which used "Germany" (Teütschland) as synonymous with the empire as a whole. Johann Jacob Moser also used "German" as a synonym for "Imperial". This conflated definition of "German" even included non-German speakers.[39]" During the 1848 nationalist revolutions throughout the German Confederation, the German nationalists naturally wanted to make the Austrian Emperor, Franz Joseph I, the Emperor of Germany. He turned it down, only for them to then offer it to the King of Prussia, Friedrich Wilhelm IV, who also turned it down. The latter saw Austria as the leader of Germany, and did not want a Germany separate of Austria. "Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria had made it clear in November 1848 that he would not accept the title of "Emperor of the Germans" from the Frankfurt National Assembly because the Frankfurt Constitution would have required German-speaking Austria to have a separate constitution, government and administration from the rest of the Empire.[59] On 28 March 1849, the Assembly elected Frederick William IV as Emperor of the Germans, but he refused the crown. In a letter to a confidant, he wrote: "I can call God to witness that I do not want it, for the simple reason that Austria will then be separated from Germany."" Austria being something separate from Germany only really came about as an idea c. 1866-1871, and even then it was flimsy at best for the next nearly 100 years, as witnessed by the Austrian desire to join Germany in the aftermath of WW1 and during the interbellum before WW2. I'd even make the case that the first widely spread Austrian identity separate from that of Germany only became a thing when the first post-WW2 generations began reaching adulthood in the 1960s and 1970s.

@@colindaniels945 Mussolini was in an alliance with Britain and France against German expansion, which included an annexation of Austria. It was called the Stresa Front. However, as it has been mentioned this quickly fell apart mostly due to the Italian invasion of Ethiopia, which ended Italy’s close relations with Britain and France, which led to Italy’s international isolation and subsequent reapprochement with Nazi Germany. If you want sources there is “Mussolini: A New Life by Nicholas Farrell”. It is also briefly touched upon by “Fascism in Europe 1919-1945 by Phillip Morgan”. If you want a primary source you can check out the personal diary of Italy’s foreign minister Galeazzo Ciano.

There is a video on here that recounts the months of early '38 to the conclusion of the Anschluss. Hitler had von Schussnig come to the Berghof and both subtly and overtly pressured him into agreeing to it. Austrian politics between the wars was a bloodsport, very much unlike the laid-back, easy going stereotype most of the world has of Austrians. Contrasted with the stability during the reign of the Emperor, the years following 1918 were very tumultuous. Political leaders were assassinated, and political factions fought in the streets. A lot of Hitler's appeal was in the fact that the population in both Germany and Austria were fed up with the unrest and political violence and longed for a stable government.

Mistake right in the beginning of the video: Austria was not separate from Germany since hundreds of years. Austria was one of the various German states who first formed the Holy Roman Empire until year 1806 and then the German Confederation from 1815 to 1866. It was only in 1866 that Austria was forced by Prussia to go separate ways. The German Federation ended in a war between its states with Prussia and its Northern allies winning and forcing the others under their rule, then calling the whole new thing "Germany". But Austria was explicitly excluded. It is a bit like as if the US Union had excluded Texas from the US after the Civil War in 1865. Back to the mistake in the video: Austria got kicked out of Germany in 1866, wanted to rejoin in 1919 (after WW1) and finally was semi-voluntarily joining Nazi-Germany in 1938.

Social democrats are not socialists, even if there party name may claim it. Whil some social democratic parties expressed a wish to "reform" into socialism, none of them ever did. therefore, calling the SDAP the "Socialist Left" is midly misleading. Socialism is when the workers own the means of production. Social democracy is when a welfare state is in place, which taxes and spends according to the welfare of the people. These are not the same, and most social democrats at the time knew this, especially given the german revolution emphasised the split between the reformist SPD and the socialist OSPD and ASPD.

The name Nazi doesn't come directly from Nationalsozialismus. It comes from the German name Ignaz, which comes from the Latin name Ignatius. Back in the 1920-1930s, Ignaz was a very popular name in southern Germany, especially Bavaria, and it was associated with common folks and peasants. The diminutive of Ignaz is Nazi. So, if you wanted to make fun of someone for being poor and you spoke German in the early 1900s, you would call the person Ignaz or Nazi. So when the National Socialists came to power, the German people originally started making fun of their name by shortening it to Nazi.

@@janzjenau8400But the Fatherland Front (VF) is anti-nazi! Reasonable for them to deny the reunion at that time. And to be honest there were many Austrians agreeing on the reunion in hope of economy, but not nationalism.

The unification of our Germanic lands is a must. If done the proper way. Last time we lost half our country to countries who have always viewed us with suspicion or hatred. That's where Bismarck succeeds and moustache man fails. Long lasting results against a world that wants us subdued or eradicated. The way it should have been will never come nor will it ever come again. At least within the United States of Europe will we be part of one nation again. Maybe then we all can let go of old baggage.

Imagine calling your nation 'Eastern empire' aka Österreich. They always knew they belonged to the Germanic tribe. Vienna is an eastern outpost.

Nationalists respect THEIR OWN right to self determination, they generally don't care too much about other nations. Imperialism is just an extreme version of nationalism

@@BritishRepublicsn Nationalists respect EVERY nations right to self determination within their borders. Imperialism is the polar opposite of nationalism. Imperialists and nationalists are arch enemies and its the most common form of right wing vs right wing war, for example right now Russijan imperialists vs Ukrainian nationalists.
