Answer this question… It resulted in little Austrian opposition to the German annexation of Austria.
We Austrians speak German, for it is our mother tongue. But it's right that there a certain differences. Not only in the accent, also in the use of tenses and especially in the vocabulary. And the "German German" certainly does influence the Austrian German. Over the last 10 - 15 years we could observe that little by little German terms take the place of our Austrian terms. A reason for this change is on the one hand the influence of German TV, for we can watch all German cable TV programs here, which affects mainly our youth. And on the other hand it has to do with standardization. E.g. international food companies write their product's description in four or five different languages on the packaging. And of course they don't write a German and an Austrian version on one packaging, because the standard German version can be understood in both countries. So, as an Austrian citizen you get used after a while to the German standard vocab. So we now use e.g. more and more the word "Tomate" for tomatoe, although the Austrian word is "Paradeiser".
At the time, there was very little distinction between Austrian and German nationality - that is a post-War concept. If you place it on the basis of what country they came from, though, many were, but it was proportional to the populations. After the Anschluß, one cannot say that someone was Austrian, as they were officially a part of Germany.
