ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY
The reason I choose this topic is because I might have some Austrian in my family. I thought that it would be cool to figure out some things about this country and also check if they are bad or good. In this article, they talk about a lot of things and how they think that the U.S looks at them like Barbarians and other interesting facts.

Haider, 50, leads the populist right Freedom Party, which in recent days was installed as a coalition partner in Austria’s new Government. This has caused a lot of drama in the country of Austria. A lot of people are raging around in Vienna. The police are dressed up in Riot gear because of the raging on the streets. Gargle says “It’s crazy, he sits around with a beer in one hand and a Cuban cigar in the other. Two thirds of the people didn’t even vote for him. What is an average Austrian to do?” The formation of this coalition caused outrage across Europe, where the freedom party is viewed as something between neo-Nazis and conventional U.S Republican conversations. While all this stuff was stirring in Vienna, on Thursday European rabbis said they would move a planned meeting from Vienna. One of the men in charge Joerg Haider is unacceptable to the European family of nations. Aba Dunner, secretary general of the conference of European Rabbis, told a Slovakian newspaper. The thoughts of the Holocaust, Hitler and SS and concentration camps are not acceptable at the start of a new century and never can be, since we know exactly what they led to in the 30’s and 40’s. In Switzerland, where the right-wing People’s party captured 22.5 percent of the vote in the last election, European governments that opposed Haider were condemned as meddling. One poll showed half the Swiss opposed the action by the EU members. However the government goes at all this, Haider’s success in Vienna is the safest controlled by giving his party a share of the government.

I found this article and it had some of the same meaning that my last topic had, but goes off in a different way. It takes place in Austria and has to do with the foreign minister and other key facts. After reviewing the info, it has a lot of keys facts and also explains a lot. France, Belgium and tiny Andorra boycotted a speech here last Thursday by the new Austrian foreign Minister. But they stayed to take part in the meeting of the organization for Cooperation and Security in Europe that she was presiding over. The conservative caucus in the European Parliament heard a motion to kick out Austria’s People’s Party for inviting back Mr. Haider’s Freedom Party into government with it. Most of the members said that the motion would not be voted on until April and had no chance of passing anyway. Europe i

I was looking through the Duiker to find something that would match what I’ve been writing about. I kind of found something that relates to my topic. It talks about how the Germans battled their way with Denmark and Austria to get what they wanted. Bismarck and Austria Tag teamed Denmark and after their victory, they decided to divide the duchies land. Austrians army wasn’t very strong, and when I did my topics on Vienna, it didn’t sound very strong either. It seems that they fight and don’t get along very well. Their battles seemed to be with either the Germans or Denmark and could never quite fighting and would never get along. Germans army seemed to have a lot of power and could push whomever they wanted around near them. Prussia had dominated Northern Germany, but they didn’t let Austria get into role they wanted to play in the German affairs. At the same time, there was disturbance and unsettled business that led to new International complications and a lot of change.
To conclude my paper, I think there was a lot of confusion between the certain countries. Germany and Austria and Prussia got into it a lot but never really figured anything out. There was a lot of disagreeing and yelling between each other. Vienna had a lot of problems themselves in the government system and couldn’t figure anything rather. The government and the populist freedom party was also a big issue that crossed Europe and was between neo-Nazis and the conventional U.S Republican conservations.
