I'm not aware of any nickname for modern Austria. However, in imperial Austria almost everything pertaining to the empire was called kaiserlich koeniglich (which means imperial royal). It was usually abbreviated k.k. which was used even more widely than H.M. in Britain. So the headmaster (principal) of a grammar school was a k.k. Gymnasialdirektor, the Technical University of Prague was the k.k. Technische Hochschule zu Prag - and so it went on. (Things pertaining to both the Austrian and Hungarian parts of the empire were k. und k.). Not surprisingly, some people found this amusing, and the Austrian author Robert Musil (1880-1942) is credited with coining the word Kakanien for imperial Austria.

Austrian politicans try to reform the school system (with unpopular ideas), are unsure whether to abolish the 6 months compulsory military service (which would leave the system in need for many low payed social workers) and face difficulties with the future payout of the retirement pay, since population will decline.

Austria is landlocked, so it cannot be reached by ship. From the US you could fly to Austria, or go by ship to another part of Europe that has a coast, and then go overland to Austria. That would take a few weeks, depending on the type of ship and where it landed in Europe, so it is hard to give a definitive answer.

The repulic of Austria is divided in 9 "Bundesländer".

From 1892-1918 - 1 Krone = 100 Heller (or Filler). Before 1892 - 1 Gulden = 100 Kreuzer (or in Hungarian, 1 Forint = 100 Krayczar). Pre-1857 - 1 Gulden = 60 Kreuzer (of 4 Heller each, so 1 Gulden = 240 Heller). The Gulden was a rather 'heavy' unit, being equivalent to about 2 Marks.

In 1892 it was halved.
