    Yes, it's Johann Gottfried Piefke. According to legend Piefke and his brother lead a marching column of the Prussian army in the aftermath of the defeat of the Austrian army in 1866 during a parade just northeast of Vienna. Seeing the two brothers, the Viennese were said to have called out "The Piefkes are coming", which stuck as a derogatory term for Prussians - later applied to most other Germans - especially those in the North. Only ones who are excluded from the term generally are Bavarians, maybe Badenians and Wurtembergers as well.

I never ordered a cappichino but curious what that would look like. Also here in barvaria water (wasser) is carbonized by default. You must specify "still" water for non gassed water.

    Actually you is the formal version, the informal one died out in English. But on Austria, Sie I haven't experienced any teenagers using Sie between each other - maybe during a formal upper class dancing lesson - but just because it might be enforced etiquette. Between people of similar age and status the Du is the most common form when in a private setting. The moment you are in a business environment, the formal "Sie" is the norm and the "Du" is only offered by the senior to the junior. The "Du" is getting more common though between colleagues and up to middle management. Using the Du without invitation either is a bold move if accepted by your senior or you can really fuck up the relationship. It might be that Germany is a bit more relaxed about it, but especially in Business dealings and hierarchical organisations like Public Administrations I have encountered similar cultures as in Austria. Problem between Austrians and Germans when it comes to "Du" und "Sie" are the greeting formulas used. Many Germans even if you do not know them tend to use Greetings that are deemed inappropriate by Austrians "Hallo" and "Tschüss" are the most common offenders. Those are greetings in Austria, if at all, used by people you are on the informal Du level. If you are on the "Sie" formal level, you only use formal greetings in Austria like "Guten Tag", "Grüß Gott" and "Auf Wiedersehen".

    Wikipedia erklärt den Ursprung des Begriffes "Piefke" so : "1866 nahm er am Krieg gegen Österreich teil. Am 31. Juli 1866 fand eine große Parade auf dem Marchfeld bei Gänserndorf etwa 20 Kilometer nordöstlich von Wien statt. Beim Einzug in die Stadt marschierten sowohl Johann Gottfried Piefke als auch dessen 1,90 m großer Bruder Rudolf (1835-1900) an der Spitze der Musikkorps. Als Reaktion sollen die Wiener ausgerufen haben „Die Piefkes kommen!“, was später zur österreichisch-landsmannschaftlichen Bezeichnung für den Deutschen i. A. wurde. Belegt ist dieser Zusammenhang aber nicht."

    It's so funny how germans can't pronounce "piefke" properly. It's more like pifke not piiiifke. "Gesudde"? You mean "Gesudere" and its the same as complaining continuesly. "grantln" is complaining rudely or just the attitude that follows with it. Also it's usually complaining about idiocy or just criticizing stuff (less likely complaining about lack of comfort and thus being whiny) and it's a big part of the Austrian humour. Yeah, we complain a lot and at the end of day we usually finish with "Wurscht" (who gives a shit). It's kinda therapeutic lol I have some german friends, some with surprisingly good humour. But I'd say it's german *groups* that are a bit ... exhausting for Austrians. Mainly bc of the different kind of "humour", and this "correctness" that gets even more build up when there's a bunch of them around 😂 A healthy competition and being able to make fun of each other is a good basis for a flourishing relationship between neighbors.

    Three Arrows is a left leaning liberal and historian who focuses on facts and disproving false narratives and myths that have become general knowledge in some modern circles. He doesn't focus on conflicts in modern politics unless it is to counter literal fascists and just tries to clear up misconceptions and misunderstandings of German history. He may gain support from the left because facts help their narrative more than the far-right but from watching his videos I don't know how you could call him a Marxist. Also your sweeping generalizations of people on the left as being "radical SJWs" and "Marxists" is telling of your reactionary character. Most Marxists hate SJWs and try to focus on economics and ignore their identity politics while those engaged in identity politics tend to despise Marxists equally so, then there are plenty who disagree with both sides that still fit into the left. You shouldn't just apply terms to people you know nothing about and accuse them of having certain opinions just because it's easier than looking into the person and examining their actual beliefs.

    I have never heard Austrian young people use "sie" with one another. But I will say that it is very important to Austrians that 'sie" is used when a young person addresses an older person. I was raised in the US and spent summers with family in Austria. My older family members would become livid if I ever dared to address an older person with "du". In general, Austrians are also very particular about shaking hands with everyone (and looking each person in the eyes) when greeting and saying goodbye.

    Thank you for explaining some of the differences between the two countries. My paternal grandfather's family were from Bavaria and my paternal grandmother's parents were from Austria-Hungary, now Burgenland in Austria, which was a total surprise to me as an adult. I was always told that we were German and grandma never mentioned it. I know there was some issue with the two marrying for some reason even though both were Catholic. Growing up, I knew that my grandmother's first language was German and I thought my grandmother's cooking was German. After I grew up, I found out that most of what she cooked was Hungarian since Burgenland used to be Western Hungary. Some food is common in both countries but most of what she cooked is clearly Eastern European. I was a bit confused until I sorted this out as an adult after going to German restaurants and not recognizing much of the food on the. menu. I was told that my grandparents had some language differences but it wasn't clear to me what they were and why it was a problem. Unfortunately, my grandfather died when my dad was a child so I never met him although I did meet some of his extended family.

    As an austrian I am sorry to say but 70% is simply not true or completely wrong :/ But I know you didnt want to offend anyone or anything. I appreciate that you tried an honest comparison. It's not easy because austria, although it's much smaller, has many differences in itself on a province level. Mostly disagree with the political comparison at the end. Germans I think are obsessed with shutting everything down what is even slightly considered political-right for their history. Both extremes were and will always be bad. Both sides are mandatory for democracy. But I would simply leave politics out of these kind of videos because it's obviously very country specific. Btw we actually have very many so called foreigners, especially in the capitals and vienna. Even historically due to the austrian empire the cultures got mixed a lot here. So no, we are definitely not foreigner unfriendly.

But in the USA you can buy cigarettes and alcohol in pharmacies which is crazy to us. Germany has the best candy on Earth too. Here in Australia, the German/Austrian stereotype is that Austrians are a bit more conservative, more formal, more traditional. Keep up the good work!

    I think you really need to distinguish Vienna and the rest auf Austria. You can not compare rural Austria or smaller towns to Berlin, you can only compare Vienna to Berlin. Even Graz is quite small compared to most German cities (and by the way, the second biggest agglomeration is actually Linz), and tiny compared to Berlin. I grew up and lived many years in Vienna, and I lived in Berlin, and yes they are quite different, but I would say in many ways Berlin and Vienna have more in common than Vienna and some Village on the countryside. Berlin is more international, more spontainous, open minded, more chaotic, dirty and poor. Is culture is more contemporary, in the making. Vienna is much more settled down, everything is refined and there are higher standards, it also has an international touch (you can find a job in Vienna if you dont speak German, but it is harder for sure). It is not Berlin but it is still quite alive. For food, for living, for culture I would strongly prefer Vienna. For work and for experience and fun, Berlin. And rural Austria - I just dont want to live there, that is not my cup of tea. But I now live in Switzerland anyway ;-).

Some of those smaller places are very provinical, others are part of bigger agglomerations (such as in the Rhine Valley). So I can not list all those places, but definitly not Vienna, Linz, Graz, Salzburg, Innsbruck and the Rhine Valley. I am not sure about Klagenfurt or Villach, as I dont really know these places.

    @@MR-fw5bl Well that depends on what you prefer. I guess it is the usual conflict between a rather conservative rural or small town area (where everyone knows everyone, where life follows predefined patterns, where you have a lot of space, great nature and so on) and the big city with a much more mixed population and a different way of life (anonymous, restricted space, but more different options). This also results in different values, politics and so on. Of course also the City has more crime (although Vienna is quite safe), more issues with poverty and so on, and Pepole with job, private and financial issues tend to move to the Vienna as well and accumulate there. The other issues is that the gap in size and character between Vienna and the rest of Austria is wider than in most countries and a complicated history. So in the end, you need to decide on what you prefer. Vienna offers anonoymity, freedom, a huge variety of culture and nightlife. In more rural areas, there is nothing of that, but you have the Nature and Space and a more conservative approach to life. And bigger towns are in between. Of course it may also depend on where you can find work and how much money you have. If you are more into industry then the whole Linz area or the Rhine Valley or maybe Graz may be the best choice for instance. If you prefer it a bit more calm and posh, Salzburg is a great choice. If you prefer Mountains, why not Innsbruck. And so on.

    Another story regarding the origin of "Piefke": The famous Prussian/German military composer Gottfried Piefke who composed many famous military marches like "Preußens Gloria", "Königräzer Marsch" and so on. As Prussia slammed the Austrians in 1866 in the decisive battle of Königräz, the Germans brought out the trumpets and blasted Königräzer Marsch at the Austrians, who, with a damaged ego, associated negative emotions with "Piefke".

    @martinhauser55399 ай бұрын

    The word "Piefke" derives from August Piefke who was a Prussian (German) tambour major and composer of military marches during the Napoleonic wars (?). He must have been a rather tiny person but with lots of stiff Prussian military drill and ambitious attitudes. Unfortunately, the Viennese never really warmed up with him and made fun of him and his troops of military musicians... Soon "Piefke" became a synonyme for typical Prussian/German attitudes (being too direct, too loud, too ...) which we Austrians absolutely dislike. Don't get me wrong: I do have really German friends who are absolutely lovely and who I care for dearly. But having worked in several touristical areas you often have to swallow your frustration as a local when you have to deal with average German tourist groups. As a typical Austrian you tend to strong dialect, sarcastics, ironics, black humour and other instruments of "self-defense".

    I know this is an old video, but I wanted to comment anyway. In the states there is a similar politeness boundary between the North and South. Southerners in many states are raised by older standards and address everyone as either Ma'am, Miss, or Sir. They would never just say yes. It would be "Yes, Sir/ma'am." The flip side to this is they say horribly rude things that sound nice to outsiders. Verses the north, were people might seem distant and less polite, but are actually very nice. They might chastise you while helping and tell you to be more prepared, but then give you extra gloves, shovel out your car, and tell you to watch out for deer.

That would be quite ridiculous. And regarding the use of the word "Piefke". From my experience the word is used very rarely these days. It was quite common in the 80's and maybe even in the 90's, but not anymore. I think our perception of Germans has changed for the better in the last decades and so the rather derogatory term "Piefke" sounds a bit outdated nowadays.
