The so-called Dual Monarchy, formed by the Compromise of 1867, created a king of Hungary in addition to the existing Austrian emperor; though these were the same person, Hungary was granted its own parliament and considerable autonomy. Francis Joseph held both titles from Austria-Hungary's inception until his death in 1916.

Pronunciation

/ˈôstrēə/ /ˈɔːstriːə/

Etymology

() From Latin Austria; a Latinization of Germanic ostar (“eastern”), from Proto-Germanic *austra (“eastern”), from the Proto-Indo-European *aus- (“to shine”) (see aurora, dawn). The Latin is short for (Marchia) austriaca (“eastern borderland”). More at eastern. Distantly cognate to Australia – same proto-Indo-European root, but via Latin where it came to mean “south” rather than “east”. Compare also Austrasie.
