first answer: No

correct answer: Yes, ... Although Austria was annexed by Hitler into the Third Reich on March 12, 1938, it was also a full partner in the war, as a part of Germany. It was not treated as an occupied country. Austrians served in the German military and worked in German war production facilities in Germany and in Austria. Austrians also supported Hitler's genocide of Austrian Jews. Now of course there were various places in Austria that did oppose Hitler and the union with Germany. So naturally not all Austrians or Germans supported Hitler, however the nation as a whole did!

When Hitler visited Vienna after the 1938 Anschluss, he was greeted by large enthusiastic crowds of Austrians. Austrians shared the same language and culture as Germany, and had the same enemies.

Both Austria & Germany were occuppied by the Allies (including the Soviet Union) at the end of the war. In fact Austria almost ended up divided like Germany (East-communist; west-free).
