A few facts bout Austria:
- Modern Austria is the German-speaking part of the Austrian (later Austro-Hungarian) Empire ruled by the Habsburg family from 1526 to 1918.
- The Austrian flag is one of the oldest national flag in the world. It dates from 1191, when Duke Leopold V fought in the Battle of Acre during the Third Crusade.
- The world's largest emerald (2860 carat) is displayed in the Imperial Treasury of the Hofburg (Imperial Palace) in Vienna.
- Schönbrunn Palace, the summer palace of the Habsburgs, has no less than 1,440 rooms.
- The sewing machine was invented in 1818 by Josef Madersperger, an Austrian.
- Some data I've read indicates there are nearly 130 golf courses in Austria.
