Was Austria an Allie power?
Depends on what you mean by Allies. If you mean Ally as in fighting with France and Britain, then no. They were enemies. But I've heard Germany and her allies being reffered to as the "Allies" and the France-Britain-Russia alliance as the Triple Entente. Personally. I like the classification of "Entente" for the British-French side and "Central Powers" for Germany and her allies, using the word "Allies" invokes too much familiarity with World War 2.

How did European aid help the Americans win the war?
European aid, particularly from France, played a crucial role in supporting the American cause during the Revolutionary War. The French provided financial assistance, military supplies, and troops that helped to bolster the American forces and allowed them to continue fighting against the British. Additionally, French naval support was instrumental in the pivotal American victory at the Battle of Yorktown in 1781, which ultimately led to the British surrender and American independence.
What was the situation for the allies during the first 9 months of world war 2- for example where were all of the positions of the allies that made winning the war seem inevitable?
It was not at all inevitable that the Allies would win WWII in the first nine months, indeed to many it would have seemed that the war was lost. This is assuming you mean from September 1, 1939 when Germany invaded Poland. Russia was allied with Germany, France and much of Europe was gone, and the British left much of their equipment and war materiel in France and had a tiny standing Army. All that stood between the free world and defeat was the British Airforce and the Royal Navy. The former was under-equiped with many obsolete aircraft and the latter stretched very thinly.

What country occupied Tunisia?
Well, depends on exactly when you're talking. Assuming you mean during WW2, it was conquered by France in the 1880's. During WW2, France was conquered by Germany, and the southern part of France, as well as overseas colonies, were run by a new French government, which was friendly to Germany, set up in the city of Vichy (in southern France)- the so-called "Vichy France". When the Allies invaded Morocco in 1942 (there were already British troops in Egypt), German and Italian troops had to occupy French territory since French troops generally didn't try to stop the Allied advance. By summer of 1943, the Allies had defeated the Axis troops in North Africa and were able to invade Sicily, which led to the invasion and defeat of Italy.
