"Dude" you're taking this way too seriously. Your point of view that Austria is part of Germany just because they are Germanic countries is simplistic. Is Switzerland part of Germany just because a large part of Switzerland speaks German (Swiss dialect)?
You can gin up whatever German (Deutsch) comeback you want but the facts are the facts.
I know that as the other poster has clearly stated that Germany and Austria are separate countries but speak a common "base" language, albeit with clear dialect differences. Even within Germany there are dialect differences between north and south. That being said the northern parts of Austria speak Central Austro-Bavarian dialects and the southern parts Southern Austro-Bavarian dialects. Austro-Bavarian differs heavily from high German (central/southern Germany), making it difficult for German speakers of different regions to understand the native population.
History wise, Austria has had a convoluted history as related to Germany. So here are some facts from commonly available sources.
Historically Austria and Germany were united, "in a way", between 1806-1866. Their predecessors were part of the Holy Roman Empire and the German Confederation. In, 1806, when the Holy Roman Empire came to an end there was a very loose and variable confederation of independent German states that loosely included Austria (as the Austrian Empire) as a part of the German Confederation until the Austro-Prussian War of 1866, which Austria lost and was subsequently "excluded" from German affairs. The unification of Germany into the integrated nation state until the beginning of WW2 occurred in 1871. That integration did not include Austria.
In 1867 Austria formed with Hungary as a dual monarchy the Austro-Hungarian Empire (1867–1918). When this empire collapsed after the end of World War I in 1918, Austria was reduced to the main German speaking areas of the empire (its current frontiers), and adopted the name The Republic of German-Austria, with hope of joining the new German Weimar Republic. However the union and name were forbidden by the Allies at the Treaty of Versailles. This led to the creation of the First Austrian Republic (1918-1933). When that political status failed the Federal State of Austria existed between 1933-1938 under a Austrian dictatorship.
In 1938, the Third Reich annexed Austria in the Anschluss. In April 1945 Karl Renner, an Austrian statesman, declared Austria separate from Germany. This contributed to the Allies treating Austria more as a liberated, rather than defeated, country, and the government was recognized by the Allies later that year.
Since early 1945 Austria and Germany (reunited in its current form) are separate countries, and any combination over history was either very loose or occurred at the barrel of a gun.
Sorry dude, take a chill pill. You really don't know history.
Nonetheless you're correct regarding Germanic emphasis on precision that includes your ammo crates.
