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.

Where did the Nazis lived?

Nazism was a German political movement and therefore vast majority of Nazis were German (and/or Austrian once Austria was absorbed by German). Most Nazis therefore lived in Germany and Austria. There were other similar political movements in other countries which are sometimes refered to as "Nazi" but these were on a much smaller scale to the German party.

Where some of the Nazis Austrian?

Yes. Hitler had been born in Austria. In 1938, he browbeat the old Austrian president into agreeing to Austrian unification with Germany, after which Austria ceased to be Austria and was called Ostmark. Every country Hitler's Nazis went in to, they found a certain percentage of the people agreed with the Nazi philosophy and were eager Nazis. There were many Austrian Nazis - such as former UN Secretary General Kurt Waldheim. There was an entire SS division of Frenchmen fighting for the Nazis, called the Charlemange Division. There was also as SS division from Norway, and one of Muslims, from Bosnia. Just two weeks ago a citizen of the Netherlands, who had also been an enthusiastic member of the SS, was convicted of murder for his wartime shootings of Dutch citizens suspected of resistance activities. There are people of Nazi proclivities everywhere, still, today, though many don't understand this about themselves.

Was Hitler a Italian?

He was born in Austria as an Austrian citizen and raised in Linz and lived in Vienna for a while but moved to Munich (a German city) at the age of 25. He renounced his Austrian citizenship in 1927, despite the fact that this made him stateless. He acquired German citizenship in February 1932. It was granted by the state of Brunswick, which was ruled by a coalition that included the Nazis. Under German nationality law at the time, anyone lawfully granted citizenship of one of the German states automatically acquired German citizenship.No, Hitler was born in Austria and was an Austrian until 1932, when he got German citizenship.
