United States of AmericaAustria-Hungary or the Austro-Hungarian Empire, officially the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and internally The Kingdoms and Lands Represented in the Imperial Council and the Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen, was a 
multi-ethic 
dual monarchy consisting of 
Cisleithania (Austria) and 
Transleithania (Hungary). Because of this, "he" is usually portrayed as two balls operating as one or as having bipolar disorder. He is also blind because two emblems from his civil ensign became iconic and are used for eyepatches for both eyes.
Due to harboring many different ethnicities, he can speak many languages.
History
Before 1867, there was just the Austrian Empire. However, Austria lost a major 
war against 
Prussia in 1866 and was left weak and broke. Inside the empire, the Hungarians (the second-largest ethnic group) saw a perfect opportunity to demand more power. To prevent a massive rebellion, Emperor 
Franz Joseph agreed to the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867. This officially split the empire into two equal parts: Cisleithania (Austria) and Transleithania (Hungary).
Austria-Hungary looked to 
France for avenging his defeat and attempted to negotiate with him and 
Italy for an anti-Prussian alliance, but no terms could be reached. The decisive victory of the 
Prusso-German armies in the Franco-Prussian war and the subsequent founding of the German Empire ended all hope of re-establishing Austrian influence in Germany.
After being forced out of Germany and Italy, the Dual Monarchy turned to the Balkans, which were in tumult as 
nationalistic movements were gaining strength and demanding 
independence. Both 
Russia and Austria–Hungary saw an opportunity to expand in this region. Russia took on the role of protector of 
Slavs and 
Orthodox Christians. Austria envisioned a multi-ethnic, religiously diverse empire under 
Vienna's control. Thus, A-H made the centerpiece of his policy one of opposition to 
Russian expansion in the Balkans and blocking 
Serbian ambitions to dominate a new South Slav federation. He wanted Germany to ally with him, not Russia.
Russian Pan-Slavic organizations sent aid to the Balkan rebels and so pressured Russia to declare war on the 
Ottoman Empire in 1877 in the name of protecting Orthodox Christians. Unable to mediate between Ottoman and Russia over the control of Serbia, Austria-Hungary declared 
neutrality when the conflict between the two powers escalated into a war. With help from 
Romania and 
Greece, Russia defeated Ottoman and with the Treaty of 
San Stefano tried to create a large pro-Russian 
Bulgaria.
