In the first example no one could stop Napoleon except for the Russian winter and in the latter two just look at a map. Not really a good position to start from...

But if you know Austria, you know it preferred to marry instead of waging war. After all, you don't have to wage wars to gain possessions.

We had already a female head of state, when the Americans were still unaware how to even spell that.

Btw, Serbs are the largest ethnic minority in Austria, I actually do think they respect Austria. They are good people, they just have their problems with the Kosovars in Austria... (and vice versa )
