The Archduchy of Austria (), one of the most important states within the Holy Roman Empire, was the center of the Habsburg Monarchy and the predecessor of the Austrian Empire. Over nearly 700 years, it evolved from a margravate to the center of an empire. With its capital at Vienna, the archduchy was centered in the area of the current Austrian States of Austria of Lower Austria and included most of what is now Upper Austria as well.
Marchia Orientalis under the Babenbergers In Carolingian times and during the early Middle Ages, the core of territory that would become the Archduchy of Austria was known as marchia orientalis or "eastern march". Ethnic German migrants displaced earlier Slavic peoples populations in the 9th century and 10th century centuries and, after the Battle of Lechfeld in 955, the area became one of the marches of the Holy Roman Empire and was given a margrave around 960. From 976, the territory was ruled by the Babenberg and it came to be known as Ostarrîchi ("Eastern Realm"), the linguistic ancestor of the German name for Austria, Österreich.
Duchy of Austria In 1156, the margravate was raised to the status of a duchy through the Privilegium Minus issued by Holy Roman Emperor Frederick I, Holy Roman Emperor. In 1278, Rudolph I of Germany defeated Ottokar II of Bohemia and secured the duchy for the Habsburg dynasty.
Archduchy of Austria In 1359, the forgery Privilegium Maius was used by Duke Rudolf IV, Duke of Austria to elevate the status of the duchy to that of archduchy, but the action was not recognized by the Holy Roman Empire. Ernest, Duke of Austria was the first to adopt the title of archduke. The archduchy was not formally recognized, however, until the Habsburgs gained control of the office of Holy Roman Emperor in 1453 under Frederick III, Holy Roman Emperor. Austria was the only state ever to be designated an archduchy. From the 16th century, members of the House of Habsburg held the title of archduke or archduchess similar to "Prince#Genealogical Princes.2C by birth or equivalent" in other European royal houses. From 1512, the archduchy was also the center of an Imperial Circle of the Holy Roman Empire, the Austrian Circle, which was mostly comprised of the Habsburg hereditary lands.
Habsburg Empire In 1804, Emperor Francis II, Holy Roman Emperor promoted his territory within the Holy Roman Empire from archduchy to empire in reaction to Napoleon I's proclamation of the First French Empire; two years later Francis formally dissolved the defunct Holy Roman Empire. The Archduchy of Austria continued to exist as a constituent crown land (Kronland) within the empire although it was divided into Upper and Lower Austria for some purposes. The title of archduke continued to be used by members of the imperial family and the archduchy was only formally dissolved in 1918 with collapse of Austria-Hungary and the creation of the separate States of Austria of Lower Austria and Upper Austria in the new Republic of German Austria.
