"want to come clean" ?? and no, this alliance has no ties whatsoever to the older version of the AHE. B)

From an [OOC Austro-Hungarian (at least by descent)] to The Austro-Hungarian Empire: Hail! I'm glad to see such an effort being undertaken.

Wappen_Kaisertum_Österreich_1815_(Klein).png

Gott erhalte, Gott beschütze

Unsern Kaiser, unser Land!

Mächtig durch des Glaubens Stütze,

Führt er uns mit weiser Hand!

Laßt uns seiner Väter Krone

Schirmen wider jeden Feind!

|: Innig bleibt mit Habsburgs Throne

Österreichs Geschick vereint! :|

Excuse my English translation skills but this is close enough to the mark, I think?

Kaiserlied

Gott erhalte, Gott beschütze God save , God protect

Unsern Kaiser, unser Land! Our Emperor and our country

Mächtig durch des Glaubens Stütze protected by faith

Führ´ Er uns mit weiser Hand! He leads us with his wise hand

Laßt uns Seiner Väter Krone leaves us his fatherly crown

Schirmen wider jeden Feind: protects us from every enemy

Innig bleibt mit Habsburgs Throne Habsburg's throne remains beloved

Österreichs Geschick vereint. and united with Austria's destiny

In Verbannung, fern den Landen in exile in distant lands

Weilst Du, Hoffnung Österreichs. you remain, hope of Austria

Otto, treu in festen Banden Otto you stand in faithful company (?)

Steh´n zu Dir wir felsengleich. we stand with you firmly

Dir, mein Kaiser, sei beschieden May you you my emperor

Alter Ruhm und neues Glück! Old splendour and new good fortune

Bring den Völkern endlich Frieden, Bring your peoples endless peace

Kehr zur Heimat bald zurück! and return soon to your homeland

Christmas004-vi.jpg

this is an original World War I Austrian Christmas card... obviously, heavily altered by adding the dark blue border, English text, and extra stars. It shows a German Shepherd messenger dog, which were widely used during the First World War, delivering the holiday mail and a Christmas tree to Austrian troops in the trenches.
