Austria (Qu'il Tous)

The Austrian Empire is a nation-state in Central Europe that was once one of the dominant powers on the continent. Following its defeat in the First European War, and the Rhineland War, as well the secession of Hungary, it was greatly reduced both in size, and in territory. The Emperor would resign in favor of his nephew in 1864. Currently, the Emperor, since 2007, is Karl I, son of Otto I, who died in July of 2011, having resigned the throne in favor of his son four years earlier.

Rulers since 1864 have been:


 * Ferdinand I, 1835-1864
 * Francis Joseph I, 1864-1916
 * Charles I, 1916-1922
 * Otto I, 1922-2007
 * Karl I, 2007-Present
