Footprints on the Moon (, "The Footprints"), also released as Primal Impulse, is a 1975 Italian mystery thriller film starring Florinda Bolkan and Klaus Kinski. It concerns a translator with an unexplained two-day gap in her memory that follows clues to a seaside town for answers, where the unfamiliar residents seem to recognize her.

Plot
Alice Cespi, living alone in Rome and employed as an interpreter, wakes up to find she has lost several days. Tormented by a recurrent nightmare from a film she saw when young called "Footprints on the Moon", in which an astronaut is left to die on the Moon by an evil mission controller. She has become reliant on tranquilisers. Going in to work, she is fired for being absent without explanation.

Back in her apartment she finds a postcard showing a faded old hotel at a place called Garma. She finds a bloodstained yellow dress she has never seen before hanging up in her closet, and notices that she has lost an earring. She decides to go to Garma, a Turkish island, and books into the mostly empty hotel. People there say they saw her a few days ago, but she had long red hair. In a shop she sees an identical yellow dress to the one she found. A dog in the woods is playing with a long red wig. She begins to suspect that the missing days in her life may indeed have been on Garma.

In a panic in the woods, she falls unconscious and a man called Henry carries her to an empty villa. When she comes to, she recognises the distinctive stained glass windows showing peacocks. On the bathroom floor she finds her missing earring. In her jumbled memories, Harry was a lover who left her, just as the astronaut was left, and in revenge she stabbed him with scissors (hence the bloodstains on the yellow dress).

She hears Harry talking on the telephone and, suspicious that he is arranging to have her taken away, kills him with a pair of scissors. Pursued along the beach by the psychiatric nurses he had called, she sees them as astronauts sent by the evil controller. An end title says she is in a secure hospital.

Reception
On its initial release, critic Giovanni Grazzini wrote that "following Dario Argento's exploits, Italian cinema can count on another director who knows how to make a thriller...The movie nails you to the chair, keeps you awake, sows in doubt and curiosity, and eventually does not make you regret the time and money spent."

Francesco Barilli saw the film in 2011 and referred to it as an "intriguing, elegant, suggestive film, very courageous and peculiar, very well shot and with a beautiful photography by Vittorio Storaro"

Foreign relations exist between Austria and Japan.  Both countries established diplomatic relations in 1869, that lasted until severed in 1914 due to the First World War. Relations were reestablished following the war.  Austria has an embassy in Tokyo and four honorary consulates: in Hiroshima, Nagoya, Osaka and Sapporo.  Japan has an embassy in Vienna and an honorary consulate in Salzburg.

History
In 1869, the first Austro-Hungarian diplomatic mission arrived at Japan, headed by Baron Anton Freiherr von Petz. Following negotiations, the first Austro-Japanese treaty of friendship was concluded on October 18 of the same year.

In June 1999, the President of Austria Thomas Klestil paid a state visit to Japan. It was the first state visit of an Austrian President to Japan.

In 2007, Japan was Austria's third most important overseas trade partner.

The 1888 North Canterbury earthquake occurred at  on 1 September following a sequence of foreshocks that started the previous evening, and whose epicentre was in the North Canterbury region of the South Island of New Zealand. The epicentre was approximately  west of Hanmer.

In Christchurch, about  southeast of the epicentre, shaking lasted for 40 to 50 seconds. The magnitude of the earthquake is estimated to be in the range 7.0–7.3. Severe damage to farm buildings in the epicentral region was reported and the top  of the spire of ChristChurch Cathedral collapsed. It was the first earthquake observed to be associated with mainly horizontal fault displacement.

Tectonic setting

New Zealand lies along the boundary between the Australian and Pacific Plates.

In the South Island, most of the relative displacement between these plates is taken up along a single dextral (right lateral) strike-slip fault with a major reverse component, the Alpine Fault.

In the North Island, displacement is mainly taken up along the Kermadec-Tonga subduction zone, although the remaining dextral strike-slip component is accommodated by the North Island Fault System.

Earthquake

The earthquake occurred on the Hope Fault, one of the group of dextral strike-slip structures known as the Marlborough Fault System that transfer displacement between the mainly transform and convergent type plate boundaries in a complex zone at the northern end of South Island. Alexander McKay, a geologist working for the geological survey, observed horizontal offsets in farm fences between  along the fault. He was the first to associate a strike-slip displacement with an earthquake.

Damage

In the North Canterbury region many buildings were severely damaged, particularly in the Hope Valley and Hanmer areas. Landslides occurred in unconsolidated sediment and fissures up to  wide were observed.

In Christchurch, the top  of the Cathedral spire fell down and minor damage, such as broken chimneys, affected many houses. The Durham Street Methodist Church, Christchurch's first church build with permanent materials, suffered some damage to its stonework. Another building affected was the Christchurch Normal School, where chimneys fell down and ceilings were cracked.

Damage was greatest in the northern and northwestern suburbs, probably due to the peaty sub-soil.

One person died of a heart attack during the earthquake.

Foreign relations exist between Austria and South Korea.  Diplomatic relations between the two countries were established on May 22, 1963.

History
The first description of Korea by Austrians was by the Jesuit missionary Martino Martini (Italian but then part of the Holy Roman Empire), who introduced Korea in the Novus Atlas Sinensis in 1655 while doing missionary activities in China.
The first Austrian Korean contact that is recorded in history happened in 1886, when the Austro Hungarian ship SMS Nautilus (1873) docked at the Korean harbors of Komundo, Pusan and wonsan. Before 1914, total of  10 Austrian empire ships visited korea. In 1894, Austrian American adventurer Ernst von Hesse-Wartegg traveled around Korea, and published a book about his travels, which was influential among German travel literature for 20 years. The first diplomatic treaty between Korea and Austria happened in 1892, with the Austria–Korea Treaty of 1892. In 1893, SMS Kaiserin Elisabeth, the ship which had guests such as Franz Ferdinand aboard (Franz, however, landed in Japan before the ship's arrival in Korea and never visited), arrived in Incheon (Chemulpo), to give the ratification document of the 1892 treaty by Franz Joseph I of Austria to Gojong of Korea, and Gojong sent back a royal armour as a gift, now exhibited in the Kunsthistorisches Museum.

Diplomatic missions
Austria has an embassy in Seoul and an honorary consulate in Busan. South Korea has an embassy in Vienna. The Austrian embassy in Seoul is located in the same building as the Australian embassy, often leading to misdelivered mail and confused visitors.

Trade
In 2007, South Korea was Austria's fourth-largest non-European Union trading partner. Two way trade was valued at about US$1.8 billion that year.

Bilateral visits
In April 2007, the President of Austria Heinz Fischer paid a state visit to South Korea.  It was the first ever state visit of an Austrian President to the republic.

Austria–Chile relations are the bilateral relations between Austria and Chile. Both nations are members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development and the United Nations.

History

The first contact between Austria and Chile dates back to the first half of the 19th century. In 1846, both nations exchanged letters of recognition which made Chile the first Latin American nation to be recognized by the Habsburg monarchy.

In 1856 the first wave of Austrians immigrated to Chile. Many of the Austrians were from the Zillertal valley in Austria and they primarily settled around Lake Llanquihue in southern Chile. The Chilean town of Nueva Braunau was founded by Austrian immigrants. In the period between the two World Wars it is estimated that between 4,000 and 5,000 Austrians settled in Chile during the 20th century.

In 1870 a Treaty of Friendship, Commerce and Navigation between the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Chile was signed. A diplomatic legation of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was opened in 1903 in Santiago. That same year, Chile opened a diplomatic legation in Vienna. In 1918 after World War I, the Austro-Hungarian Empire dissolved and Austria became an independent nation. In 1938, Chile became a destination for Austrian Jews fearing changes affecting the Austrian Jewish community after the Anschluss by Nazi Germany.

After World War II, Austria and Chile agreed to exchange Plenipotentiary Ministers: the first Austrian diplomatic representative arrived in Santiago in 1948. Four years later the diplomatic representations rose to the rank of embassies.

In September 1973, Chile experienced a coup d'état. As a result, approximately 1,500 Chileans fled to Austria. During the presidency of Augusto Pinochet, both nations maintained diplomatic relations. In 2002, Chile signed a free trade agreement with the European Union (which includes Austria).

In May 2006, Chilean President Michelle Bachelet became the first Chilean head-of-state to pay a visit to Austria. While in Austria, President Bachelet met with members of the Chilean-Austrian community in Vienna. In May 2008, Austrian Chancellor Alfred Gusenbauer paid an official visit to Chile, becoming the first Austrian head-of-government to visit Chile. In December 2015, President Bachelet paid a second visit to Austria.

In October 2018, delegations from both nations held a third Meeting of Political Consultations in Santiago. During the meeting, the delegates exchanged points of view on the bilateral, regional and global relationship, such as the modernization of the Chile-European Union Association Agreement and the Austrian Presidency of the European Union, which that nation held during the second half of 2018.

Bilateral agreements
Both nations have signed several bilateral agreements such as an Treaty of Friendship, Commerce and Navigation (1870); Agreement on the lifting of visa requirements for ordinary passport holders (1954); Agreement in Tourism Cooperation (1954); Agreement in the granting of authorizations to radio amateurs from both countries to operate amateur radio stations (1986); Agreement of cooperation in combating illegal drug trafficking, psychotropic substances and organized crime (1996); Agreement on Social Security (1997); Agreement on the promotion and mutual protection of investments (1997); Agreement on the avoidance of double taxation and the prevention of tax evasion in the area of taxes on income and wealth (2012); Agreement for a Working Holiday Program (2017); and an Air Transport Agreement (2022).

Synopsis
Kelly stars as Father Chuck O'Malley, a Roman Catholic priest who is sent to St. Dominic's Parish located in a lower-class section of New York City. Dick York, later of Bewitched, portrays a character not in the film, Chuck's boyhood friend Tom Colwell, the director of a secular neighborhood youth center. Also co-starring is Leo G. Carroll as the aging pastor, Father Fitzgibbon, portrayed in the film, by Barry Fitzgerald. Nydia Westman is Mrs. Featherstone, the housekeeper of the rectory, portrayed by Eily Malyon in the film, where the character is named Mrs. Carmody. Episodes focus on Father O'Malley's attempts to connect with the congregation and his relationship with the elderly Father Fitzgibbon.

Diplomatic relations exist between the Republic of Austria and the United Mexican States. Both nations are members of the OECD and the United Nations.

History

In July 1842, the Austrian Empire and Mexico established diplomatic relations after signing a treaty of Friendship, Navigation and Commerce between the two nations. In December 1861, Emperor Napoleon III of France invaded Mexico. After successfully taking over the country, Emperor Napoleon III, along with the Mexican aristocracy, offered the crown of Mexico to his Austrian cousin, Maximilian of Habsburg. In April 1864, Maximilian, along with his wife Carlota set sail for Mexico and upon arrival to the country in May 1864, Maximilian was declared Emperor of Mexico. This period was known as the Second Mexican Empire.

The reign of Emperor Maximilian was engulfed in constant conflict between his French backed government and the government in exile of Benito Juárez. In 1866, France withdrew its army from Mexico and in June 1867, Emperor Maximilian was captured by Juárez forces in Querétaro City and executed along with two of his generals, thus ending the empire. After the execution of Maximilian, diplomatic relations between Austria and Mexico were severed until 1901.

In 1938, Mexico became the only country to protest against the Anschluss of Austria at the League of Nations. During World War II, Austria was part of the German Reich and in May 1942 Mexico declared war on Germany after the destruction of two Mexican oil tankers in the Gulf of Mexico by German U-boats. During the war, Mexico accepted 1,500 Austrian refugees fleeing Nazi persecution. After the war, normal relations were restored between the two nations.

Over the years, diplomatic relations between the two nations have strengthened. In 2005, President Heinz Fischer became the first Austrian head of state to pay a visit to Mexico.  In 2006, former President Vicente Fox reciprocated the visit by paying a state visit to Austria. In 2011, the Colegio Austriaco Mexicano opened in Querétaro City.

There has been much discussion between the two nations over whether Austria should return Moctezuma's headdress to Mexico alongside various other pre-Hispanic artifacts that were taken into to Austria in 1519 and are currently on display at the Museum of Ethnology in Vienna. In July 2014, it was declared that the headdress was too fragile to travel and therefore cannot be returned to Mexico. In 2018, Austria acknowledged and thanked Mexico on the 80th anniversary of Mexico's protest against the Anschluss.

In 2021, both nations celebrated 120 years of diplomatic relations.

Trade relations
In 1997, Mexico and the European Union (which includes Austria) signed a free trade agreement. In 2021, two-way trade between both nations amounted to US$1.6 billion. Austria is Mexico's 34th biggest foreign direct investor. Between 1999 - 2016, Austrian companies invested over US$284 million in Mexico. Austria's main exports to Mexico include: pharmaceutical products, steel, aluminum and paper. Mexico's main exports to Austria include: machinery, electronics, car parts and beer. Mexican multinational companies América Móvil and Nemak operate in Austria.

French Electro dance (otherwise known as Tecktonik and Milky Way) is one style of frenetic and quirky form of street dance typically performed to electro house music. It is based on, although is not limited to, a blend of different dance styles, such as industrial dance, Moroccan chaabi, disco, vogue, waacking, hip-hop and freehand glowsticking. It started in the 2000s and originated in the southern suburbs of Paris, France, mainly from the Metropolis nightclubs and has spread around the world. Fast-paced techno and electro house music imported from Northern Europe is the usual choice for Tecktonik dancing.

Electro dance is predominantly about arm movement, taking basic elements from glowsticking such as the concept of Freehand, the Figure 8 and the idea of the Leading Hand (one hand geometrically following the other), while staying very much in a disco taste, by amplifying points and poses as a main aspect to this style. Down below electro dancers tend to use their hips, knees and feet to gently shuffle across the floor in beat to the music, quite often in a random and jerky fashion. They also tend to include elements of toprock, b-boy-like footwork, lending to the hip hop-like influences in much of the electro house music.

The term "Tecktonik" is a registered trademark that began in Paris, and this has created issues for dance events or other uses of the name. The creators of the Tecktonik brand (most notably Cyril Blanc, the artistic director of Metropolis)  sell official products, such as clothes, Matts CDs, and energy drinks.

History
In 2002, Cyril Blanc and Alexandre Barouzdin organized "Tecktonik Killer" parties under their project called "Tecktonik Events" whose purpose was to promote in France two styles of music which originated in Belgium and the Netherlands: hardstyle and jumpstyle. This project foresaw, in the Metropolis nightclub, the creation of three types of parties where DJs from the hardstyle genre would meet: "Blackout" evenings, "Electro Rocker" evenings and "Tecktonik Killer" evenings. Cyril explained that the name "Tecktonik" is a pun on the theory of tectonic plates.

Along with tecktonik killer parties, Cyril and Alexandre created, with the help of designers and sales staff, symbols that would surround the phenomenon: neon colors, mittens, tight clothing, etc. Given the success of these evenings, Cyril Blanc filed applications for "Tecktonik" and "TCK" trademarks at the National Industrial Property Institute (INPI), and internationally in 2007, to prevent other clubs from promoting their parties using those words. A number of products were then developed and marketed using these brand names, including clothing and an energy drink. Two other clubs in Paris then took over the Metropolis club; the Mix Club and the Red Light.

Tecktonik has enjoyed increasing success and has spread to France and Tunisia through gatherings in the street and videos available on the Internet. During 2007, mainstream media took interest in this phenomenon, further contributing to its spreading. The dance is known to the general public through its appearances in videos, including "Alive" by Mondotek, the Tepr remix of "A cause des Garçons" by Yelle, "Sucker" by Dim Chris, or songs by artists such as Lorie. In September 2007, the Techno Parade raised the visibility of Tecktonik.

In November 2007, TF1 became the official international agency for Tecktonik, with the goal of promoting the brand outside France.

Clubs must obtain permission from Cyril Blanc and Alexandre Barouzdin to use the term "Tecktonik" or "TCK".

The Motorola Profile 300e is a mobile phone that was manufactured by Motorola in 1996.
The Profile had the Motorola MicroTAC's battery and antenna. The "e" at the end of the name means that it had all of the special features as well as extended display. The phone had a "slim" 6V Nickel-Metal Hydride battery and a regular battery. With the slim battery, the phone was about an inch thick. It had a built-in antenna that was 5 inches long.
For making calls, the phone had a SND button, and to end calls it had an end button. The Profile was one of the first cell phones  that had a passcode lock. The Profile was not a very popular
cell phone.

Other Buttons
Other buttons on the Profile 300e were: RCL, STO, CLR, FCN, and up and down buttons for volume.

Display
The Profile 300e had an LED Display with 3 signal icons, 3 battery icons, an NS
icon (No Service), an IU icon (In Use), and RM (Roaming). It had a 10-number display. When the
phone was turned on, the screen would simply say "On". If the phone was locked it would say
"Loc'd". When the phone was locked, the code was a 3-digit number—by default 1-2-3, or if not, the last
three digits in the phone's number.

Features
The phone had 9 optional ringtones, an auto lock function, multikey answer (so you could answer with any key), a special emergency call option, an Auto Answer function (after two rings the phone would automatically answer itself), and several other features common on older Motorola phones.

These Days Will Fade is an extended play by American alternative rock / post-hardcore band Moments in Grace. It is the band's second release, following Postcard Audio's eponymous extended play released in 2002, but the first to be released after changing name to Moments in Grace. The extended play was first released as a free download by American record label Salad Days Records on December 12, 2003. It was later re-issued digitally and on compact disc by Atlantic Records and Salad Days Records on March 23, 2004. The release includes the song "Stratus", which was later pushed as a single to radio stations in June 2004, and its music video to music television channels in August 2004.

The extended play was intended as a teaser for the band's forthcoming full-length album Moonlight Survived, its material having been written at the same time from mid-2002 to mid-2003, while the band was still named Postcard Audio. The band's line-up then included vocalist, guitarist, keyboardist and principal songwriter Jeremy Griffith, guitarist Justin Etheridge, bass guitarist Jake Brown and drummer Brandon Cook. Cook was replaced by Timothy Kirkpatrick in May 2003 and a month later the band was renamed Moments in Grace. The band recorded sixteen songs over the span of three months, split between June–August 2003 and November 2003, with producer Brian McTernan at Salad Days in Beltsville, Maryland; four of which appeared on These Days Will Fade (with the rest appearing on Moonlight Survived).

In promotion of the material released on These Days Will Fade and Moonlight Survived, Moments in Grace toured the United States and Canada several times between December 2003 and February 2005, accompanied by such bands My Chemical Romance, Avenged Sevenfold, Finger Eleven, Thrice, Silverstein, Funeral for a Friend, Alexisonfire, From First to Last, Smile Empty Soul, Bayside, Hot Water Music, Darkest Hour, Further Seems Forever, Poison the Well, A Thorn for Every Heart, Steriogram, Thornley, Strata, Brandtson, Planes Mistaken for Stars, The Jealous Sound, Beloved, Zolof The Rock & Roll Destroyer, Noise Ratchet, Rock 'n' Roll Soldiers, Vaux, Engine Down, Statistics, June, Madcap, The Kicks, Don't Look Down and Decahedron. The band also performed on Van's Warped Tour and at notable festivals like Skate and Surf Festival in Asbury Park, New Jersey, The Fest in Gainesville, Florida and the Millennium Music Conference in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

Composition and recording
These Days Will Fade was written while the band was still named Postcard Audio, with vocalist, guitarist, keyboardist and principal songwriter Jeremy Griffith, guitarist Justin Etheridge, bass guitarist Jake Brown and drummer Brandon Cook. On July 2, 2002, shortly after releasing its eponymous debut extended played, Postcard Audio opened for The Liar's Academy and Brandtson at Barnstormer's in Montevallo, Alabama. A month later, in August 2002, The Liar's Academy spent a week recording its extended play, Trading My Life, with record producer Brian McTernan at his Salad Days recording studio in Beltsville, Maryland. While taking a break from tracking, The Liar's Academy guitarist Matt Smith was listening to Postcard Audio's extended play when the music caught McTernan's attention. Impressed by Griffith's voice, McTernan, who was then also an A&R representative and artist developer for major record label Atlantic Records, flew down to St. Augustine, Florida to meet with the band and attend one of its shows.

In early November 2002, Postcard Audio began working with McTernan and announced that it would take a hiatus from playing shows to focus on the extended writing of a full-length album, hoping to enter Salad Days recording studio in March 2003 (though this was ultimately delayed by several months). By April 2003, the band was nearly done writing its full-length album, having written over thirty songs in the process, and citing influences like Jeff Buckley, U2, Ours, Sunny Day Real Estate, Foo Fighters and Hum. The band had recorded demo material at Griffith's home studio, The Factory, in Fort Walton Beach, Florida during most of 2002 and the first half of 2003.

In May 2003, Cook was replaced by former As Friends Rust and Culture drummer Timothy Kirkpatrick. Kirkpatrick was recommended by McTernan, who had heard of the drummer through members of The Liar's Academy's other band, Strike Anywhere; Strike Anywhere had toured twice with As Friends Rust in 2000 and 2001. In late June 2003, Postcard Audio was renamed Moments in Grace; the new name was inspired by lyrics from the song "Drink Deep" by Rites of Spring. The band immediately began tracking thirteen songs for its full-length album, Moonlight Survived, over the span of two months at Salad Days with producer McTernan (though the total number of tracks recorded eventually increased to sixteen during production).

Unhappy with the way the full-length sounded, the band returned to Salad Days in November 2003 to re-record some of the material, record a couple of extra songs, and fully re-mix the release. Moonlight Survived was completed by the end of November 2003, and the band quickly signed with Atlantic Records and McTernan's new Atlantic Records imprint, Salad Days Records, created specifically to release the band's music. The album was originally scheduled for release in May 2004, but it would ultimately be delayed by three months.

Release, packaging and promotion
On December 12, 2003, the band released These Days Will Fade through Salad Days Records. The release included the songs "Stratus" and "Broken Promises", which were also scheduled to appear on Moonlight Survived; and "Curtain Call" and "The Silencing Truth", which were b-sides from the recording session and exclusive to this release. The extended play was offered as a free download (an idea suggested by McTernan), exclusively through the band's website and through webzine AbsolutePunk. It also included an extensive digital booklet designed by Shelby Cinca and Gabriel Baldessin at Passkontrol. The band later stated in interviews that These Days Will Fade was intended as both an introduction to the band and a teaser of the forthcoming full-length album.

On March 23, 2004, Atlantic Records re-issued These Days Will Fade through all major digital retailers and also pressed a limited amount of promotional compact discs.

On June 15, 2004, Atlantic Records and Salad Days Records released "Stratus" as the extended play's first single, digitally and on compact disc; the release included an exclusive radio edit version of the song. On the same day, the two record labels also released a compact disc sampler, which included all three previously-released songs from the band's forthcoming album: "Stratus", "Broken Promises" and "My Dying Day". The sampler managed to reach No. 2 on CMJ New Music Report's Loud College Rock Adds, No. 3 on Loud Rock Crucial Spins Add, and No. 14 on CMJ Top 200 Adds, on June 21, 2004.

On July 17, 2004, Moments in Grace filmed a music video for the lead single "Stratus", with director Laurent Briet in Los Angeles, California. The video premiered on August 12, 2004, five days before Moonlight Survived was released, and later aired on MTV and Fuse. On July 19, 2004, Moments in Grace was invited to MTV's Paramount Plaza studio for a photo shoot and video interview promoting These Days Will Fade and the forthcoming Moonlight Survived.

Moonlight Survived was released on August 17, 2004, through Atlantic Records and Salad Days Records. The double vinyl edition included the two songs from These Days Will Fade as bonus songs; "Curtain Call" and "The Silencing Truth". The song "Broken Promises" was also included in the Criterion Games / Electronic Arts racing video game, Burnout 3: Takedown, released on September 4, 2004.

Touring

In promotion of These Days Will Fade, Moments in Grace began touring full-time, ultimately spending over a year on the road, starting right after the album's recording was completed (nine months before it was released), and lasting six months after its release. The band first toured across the Southern United States, from Florida to California, spanning December 10–17, 2003. The trip culminated with a benefit show at the House of Blues in West Hollywood, California in direct support of Thrice. Moments in Grace next played three shows as part of a Californian mini-tour, from January 2–4, 2004, accompanied by Avenged Sevenfold and Saosin.

A tour with Engine Down, Statistics and Decahedron, spanning from January 31 to February 19, 2004, took the bands through the East Coast, South and Midwest of the United States. This was immediately followed by a Southern and Midwest United States tour with Smile Empty Soul, from February 20 to March 1, 2004. From there, Moments in Grace met back up with Engine Down and The Jealous Sound for four dates in the Midwest and Northeast United States between March 2–7, 2004.

From there, the band met up with From First to Last and A Thorn for Every Heart for West Coast and Midwest United States dates spanning April 9–15, 2004, followed by a stop to play Asbury Park, New Jersey's Skate and Surf Festival on April 17, 2004.

The band rejoined Avenged Sevenfold for a lengthy six-week tour of the East Coast, South and West Coast of the United States and crossing into Western Canada, from April 16 to May 24, 2004.

The tour included a cross-over show with Shinedown on June 13, 2004 at the Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, New Jersey.

The band was then invited to perform at the music showcase Millennium Music Conference, which took place at the Crowne Plaza hotel in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on June 24, 2004. Moments in Grace next joined Van's Warped Tour for a series of performances across the Southern and West Coast United States, from June 25 to July 11, 2004. The band played on the Punkrocks.net stage and held a giveaway contest in cooperation with Alternative Press, of prizes including iTunes gift certificates, iPods, and an Apple 14-inch iBook G4 to fans who signed up to its mailing list. On July 18, 2004, the band flew to Washington D.C. for a one-off show with The Honorary Title at Black Cat, and from July 20 to August 12, 2004, toured the East Coast and Midwest United States with Finger Eleven, Thornley and Strata.

In celebration of Moonlight Survived's release, Moments in Grace played three album-release shows accompanied by Taken From You. The first was held at The Handlebar in Pensacola, Florida on August 15, 2004; the second at Common Grounds Coffee House in Gainesville, Florida on August 17, 2004; and the third at Cafe Eleven in St. Augustine, Florida on August 18, 2004.

Moments in Grace supported Seether for a one-off show at the UFC Arena in Orlando, Florida on August 28, 2004. A week later, the band was back on the road for two months-worth of shows. From September 3–13, 2004, the band played a mix of headlining and co-headlining dates in the South and West Coast of the United States. The co-headlining dates included shows with The Working Title and Mae in Charleston, South Carolina on September 3, 2004; Fear Before the March of Flames and A Thorn for Every Heart in Dallas, Texas on September 7, 2004; Colossal in Bakersfield, California on September 12, 2004; and The Kinison, Killradio and A Wilhelm Scream in Pomona, California on September 13, 2004.

The band next teamed up with Further Seems Forever, Brandtson and The Kicks for the "Hide Nothing Tour", which Moments in Grace joined from September 15 to October 4, 2004. The tour took the bands through the United States' West Coast (including a date in Western Canada), the Midwest and the East Coast. Another one-off show paired Moments in Grace with The Starting Line and Park in Tucson, Arizona on October 11, 2004, while the band travelled to meet up its next tour package.

For its final tour of the year, Moments in Grace teamed up with Hot Water Music for "The New What Next Tour", spanning six weeks from October 13 to November 21, 2004. The package tour also included Alexisonfire from October 13 to November 13; Don't Look Down from October 13–23; Planes Mistaken for Stars from October 23 to November 21; and Silverstein from November 15–21. Engine Down was initially to be on the tour but was replaced by Silverstein. The trip took the bands through the United States' West Coast, South and East Coast, followed by two dates in Canada, and finished in the American Midwest. It also included a stop to play The Fest 3 festival in Gainesville, Florida on October 31, 2004. A Various Artists sampler, including Moments in Grace's songs "Stratus" and "Broken Promises", as well as the music video for "Stratus" in an enhanced portion of the disc, was released simultaneously. The compact disc sampler also included songs and videos by Hot Water Music, Alexisonfire and Planes Mistaken for Stars.

On its way back home to Florida from the tour with Hot Water Music, Moments in Grace played two shows as part of clothing store Hollister Co.'s promotional event, "Club Cali Presents: The 12 Days of Rock". The clothing company held in-store concerts by thirteen bands over twelve days at various malls across the United States. Moments in Grace was the only band to perform two shows: the first at North Point Mall in Alpharetta, Georgia on November 29, 2004; and the second at The Mall at Millenia in Orlando, Florida on December 3, 2004.

Moments in Grace next embarked on an American West Coast tour with Rock 'n' Roll Soldiers, spanning from January 15–25, 2005. The trip included dates in California, Arizona and Nevada, at such venues as Soma in San Diego, Troubadour in West Hollywood, GameWorks in Las Vegas and Cafe Du Nord in San Francisco. A week-and-a-half later, Moments in Grace was back on the road for another American West Coast tour, this time with June and Zolof The Rock & Roll Destroyer, spanning from February 4–18, 2005. The tour was originally to include Halfwayhome, but due to changes in membership, the band had to pull out. Moments in Grace again played in California and Arizona on this tour, at such venues as GameWorks in Tucson, Knitting Factory in Hollywood, and Chain Reaction in Anaheim. The trip also included a one-off show with National Product and Take the Crown at Troubadour in West Hollywood on February 8, 2005.

Moments in Grace continued with several one-off headlining shows in late February and early March 2005, including the one-year anniversary party of webzine A Thousand Apologies in Tempe, Arizona on February 25, 2005. The band's next headlining show was on March 5, 2005 at Mr. Cue's Billiards in Lancaster, California with Saosin; it would be the band's final performance. At the time of Moments in Grace's break-up in early March 2005, the bands booking agency, Pinnacle Entertainment, was already in the midst of booking several more tours, including a headlining trek from March 25 to April 6, 2005, and dates on Van's Warped Tour in early August 2005.

History

Relations of France with the Habsburg Monarchy before 1804

The conflict for supremacy in Europe between Habsburg and France

Since the second half of the 14th century, the Burgundian state had begun to form on the soil of the old Lotharingia on both sides of the French-German language border. This state was composed of various lands that were neither economically nor culturally unified and rose to become a major European power in the 15th century. The new state was called "the Great Duchy of the West" because it surpassed most of the monarchies of Europe in power and wealth. What this state lacked, however, was a royal crown. However, this was to change under the last duke, Charles the Bold. For he intended to enter into a Burgundian-Habsburg union, by which he hoped to elevate the state structure to kingship.

When Charles the Bold fell in the Battle of Nancy in January 1477, leaving no male heir, the autonomy of the Burgundian duchy ended. Charles the Bold had previously made a promise that his daughter Mary of Burgundy would be married to Maximilian I, the son of Emperor Frederick III, which occurred that same year. With this marriage, however, a conflict was to break out that had lasted for centuries between France and the Habsburgs.

Maximilian I asserted claims to the Burgundian inheritance on behalf of Charles's heiress Mary of Burgundy, as did the French king Louis XI of the House of Valois, from which the dukes of Burgundy descended. Burgundian wars of succession followed. Finally, in 1493, the Peace of Senlis was concluded with King Charles VIII of France. Maximilian retained most of the Burgundian territories on the territory of the Holy Roman Empire, except for the French fiefdom.

The marriage of Maximilian I and Mary of Burgundy gave birth in 1478 to Philip I the Fair, whose birth was of great importance for the consolidation of Habsburg rule in Burgundy. In 1496, as part of Maximilian I's marriage plans, Philip I was married to Joan, the daughter of the "Catholic monarchs" Isabella of Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon, who stood at the cradle of the nascent Spanish Empire. In addition to the territories on the Iberian Peninsula, the Spanish Empire also extended to southern Italian territories (Sardinia, Naples and Sicily) and to the recently discovered overseas colonies in the Americas. The political background for these dynastic overtures was an alliance against France. This exacerbated the Habsburg-French rivalry anew.

Due to sudden deaths, Joan was the sole heir to the united crowns of Spain, which meant that Philip I was now in a similar situation in Spain as his father had been in Burgundy: he was the prince consort of the heir's daughter. Both of their sons, in turn, the future Emperor Charles V, assumed rule in Burgundian Flanders in 1515 and in the Kingdom of Spain the following year. He thus combined several crowns and even more claims, which served as a foundation for the attempt to establish a dynastic universal monarchy with Habsburg hegemony over Europe. France found itself encircled: To the south lay the Iberian heartland of the rising great power Spain. To the north and east along France's border with the Holy Roman Empire was the agglomeration of territories that had come under Habsburg rule as Burgundian inheritance.

The French crown's effort to break free from the threatening grip of the Habsburg possessions in order to eliminate the House of Habsburg as a competitor for supremacy in Europe resulted in a conflict between the Habsburgs and France that lasted for 240 years: the Habsburg-French antagonism. This extended from the Italian Wars (1494-1559), through the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648), to the War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714), and ended in the treaties of Utrecht in 1713, Rastatt, and Baden in 1714. The peace treaties provided a breakthrough for a European system based on the balance of power.

Reversal of alliances (diplomatic revolution)
The Habsburg monarchy sought an alliance with France due to their growing concern over the rise of Prussia as a major power. France, in turn, wanted to challenge Britain's dominance both in Europe and its colonies. This led to the Convention of Westminster in 1756 between Britain and Prussia, prompting France to seek closer ties with the Habsburg monarchy. The resulting alliance, known as diplomatic Revolution, marked a significant shift in the European balance of power. The Seven Years' War began in February of that year, with France attacking the British Isles and Menorca, sparking a wider conflict for control of Europe. The first Treaty of Versailles, established in May 1756, was initially presented as a defensive alliance but was effectively an offensive one against Prussia. Russia also joined the alliance in 1759. The treaty included provisions for mutual military assistance, excluding conflicts between France and Britain. A second Habsburg-Bourbon treaty was signed in 1757, further solidifying the alliance. The Seven Years' War ended in 1763 and confirmed the status quo. Silesia and Glatz remained in Prussian possession and the Austrian hereditary lands continued to belong to Austria.

In 1770, diplomatic relations between France and Austria were strengthened with the marriage of Maria Antonia (Marie Antoinette), daughter of Maria Theresa, and the future King of France Louis XVI, a grandson of Louis XV, symbolically ending the Habsburg-French conflict that had lasted for almost 300 years.

French Revolution
Emperor Leopold II was initially positive about the French Revolution, but in 1791 his sister Marie-Antoinette already asked him to intervene militarily and put an end to the revolution. However, the emperor refused to do so. On June 20 and 21, 1791, the royal family attempted to flee France, but were intercepted at Varennes and taken back to Paris. On September 3 of that year, the constitutional monarchy was proclaimed. Emperor Leopold II and Prussian King Frederick William II promised to crush the French Revolution. As a result, France declared war, which met with great approval among the population. Through the cannonade of Valmy on September 20, 1792, the revolutionary army was able to ward off a military threat from the outside for the time being. However, with the execution of Louis XVI and his wife Marie-Antoinette in 1793, other monarchies such as Britain joined the war against France.

Relations between 1804 and 1918

First and Second Coalition War
With the Pillnitz Declaration in 1791, Austria and Prussia had joined forces to support King Louis XVI during the French Revolution. This alliance was extended by other European powers in the 18th century and together they tried to contain the effects of the French Revolution.

France's declaration of war on April 20, 1792, finally marked the beginning of the War of the First Coalition, which ended on October 17, 1797, with the Peace of Campo Formio between France and Austria. The Congress of Rastatt from 1797 to 1799 was supposed to discuss the implementation of the peace resolutions, but it did not come to that, because the Napoleonic Wars began and thus the confrontation continued between France and Austria as well. On June 14, 1800, the Battle of Marengo took place, which brought Upper Italy back under French control and was a decisive victory over Austria. In the same year, the Battle of Hohenlinden took place, in which the French again defeated the Austrian army and thus were able to invade their lands. Austria was forced to sign a peace treaty, thus the Peace of Lunéville was signed, which secured for France the territories on the left bank of the Rhine and the recognition of the sister republics created by French revolutionary exports, as well as the Kingdom of Etruria.

Napoleonic wars
In December 1804, Napoleon Bonaparte declared himself Emperor of the French, prompting Emperor Francis II to proclaim himself Emperor Francis I of Austria. In 1805, Austria joined an alliance with Russia, Britain, and Sweden in the War of the Third Coalition against Napoleon. France demanded that Austria remove its troops from Tyrol and Veneto, but Emperor Francis I refused. Napoleon formed an alliance with Spain and southern German rulers and crossed the Rhine on September 25. France declared war on Austria after Austrian troops advanced into Bavaria. The French won the Battle of Elchingen and advanced to Vienna, where the famous Battle of Austerlitz took place. The Austrian and Russian troops were unable to withstand Napoleon's army and were forced to accept defeat. Napoleon established his headquarters at Austerlitz Castle, negotiated an armistice with Emperor Francis I, and the withdrawal of Russian troops. The War of the Third Coalition ended in 1805 with the Peace of Pressburg, resulting in significant territorial losses for Austria.

After several victories in battles such as Abensberg and Regensburg, Napoleon's army reached Vienna in May 1809. The Battle of Aspern, east of Vienna, resulted in the Austrians achieving their first victory over Napoleon. However, Napoleon went on to win subsequent battles against Austria, resulting in an armistice in Znojmo and the signing of the Peace of Schönbrunn in October 1809. This peace treaty led to further territorial losses for Austria and ultimately contributed to the state bankruptcy. To consolidate their political situation, Emperor Francis II's daughter, Archduchess Marie Louise, was married to Napoleon in 1810. This alliance forced Austria to participate in the Russian campaign in 1812. In 1813, Austria joined Prussia in a renewed effort to end French domination under Napoleon. This alliance, along with Russia, managed to defeat Napoleon at the Battle of Leipzig.

On March 31, 1814, the allied troops take Paris and Napoleon is forced to abdicate. He is replaced by the Treaty of Fontainebleau, concluded by Austria, Russia, Prussia and himself, which banished him to the island of Elba and granted Empress Marie-Louise the Italian duchies of Parma, Piacenza and Guastalla with full autonomy. In September of that year until June 9, 1815, the Congress of Vienna took place under the leadership of the Austrian Foreign Minister Prince von Metternich, whose goal was the reorganization of Europe after the defeat of Napoleon, and with which Austria was able to get back many territories lost to France.

Revolutions of 1848
In February 1848, the bourgeois-democratic revolution ended in France and the Second French Republic was proclaimed. The spirit of the revolution also made itself felt in Austria, so that a failed revolution occurred in the same year, but it was unsuccessful, as neo-absolutism continued thereafter.

In the field of foreign policy, Austria was threatened by some dangers. The relationship with Prussia was strained, there were economic antagonisms with England, and Russia saw Austria as an enemy because the latter did not support Russia in the Crimean War. France, under Napoleon III, was willing to risk war with Austria in order to secure parts of northern Italy in Lombardo-Venetia.

Franco-Prussian War
The Franco-Prussian War of 1870, in which the southern German states also sided with Prussia, led to the creation of the German Empire through a swift and unequivocal victory and the proclamation of Wilhelm I as German Emperor in 1871. After the defeat for France, Emperor Napoleon III was deposed and made way for the Third Republic.

Alliance politics in Europe
After the 1870s, the alliance policy led to a constellation in which two hostile blocs faced each other. There were many problems between the European states, which made the war readiness very high. In 1878, the Habsburg Monarchy and the German Empire concluded the Dual Alliance. This expanded to include Italy in 1882 and Romania in 1883. However, the interaction of these was conflictual due to numerous tensions between the two new allies and the Danube Monarchy. The opposing alliance was formed from 1894 by the alliance between France and Russia, followed by the alliance between France and Britain in 1904. Finally, Russia and Britain also concluded an alliance in 1907. These three allies would become partners in World War I as the Entente Cordiale.

World War I
Following the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo on June 28, 1914, and the resulting July crisis, World War I began on July 28, 1914, with Austria-Hungary's declaration of war on Serbia. Germany supported the Austrian ally in its strict stance against Serbia. Serbia, in turn, was supported by Russia. Disaster struck when, in the aftermath of Austria's declaration of war against Serbia, Germany declared war on Russia and France. Due to the invasion of German troops via neutral Belgium into France, Britain joined the war. Austro-Hungarian troops were deployed on the Western Front as military support for the German Empire in France and Belgium. The allies of the Central Powers, Italy and Romania, remained neutral for the time being, but then entered the war on the side of the Entente. Turkey and Bulgaria joined the war on the side of the Central Powers. On November 3, 1918, an armistice was signed, marking the victory of the Triple-Entente coalition and the collapse of the Central Powers.

Relations between 1918 and 1945
Relations between Austria and France in the interwar period were primarily influenced by the consequences of the First World War. The Peace Treaty of St. Germain, which came into force in 1920, also sealed the dissolution of Austria-Hungary and the end of the Habsburg monarchy. Tough conditions were imposed on the new state of Austria. In the negotiations of 1919, France was one of the main demanders of an independent Austria, which was to be prohibited from uniting with Germany. The main purpose of this was to prevent a resurgence of Germany after 1918. After the negative experiences of the First World War, a new large German power bloc should not to emerge under any circumstances. Therefore, all of France's diplomatic efforts in the interwar period were aimed at ensuring that Austria remained an independent state. At the same time France was also against a Habsburg restoration in Austria.

In addition to its political interests, France had considerable economic interests in Austria. France had large stakes in both banks and industry. By strengthening a federation on the Danube, France hoped to create a well-connected economic center under French influence, with a center in Vienna. To achieve this goal, the French Reparations Commission was transformed into an Aid and Reconstruction Commission. At the same time, however, French aid policy was always also power politics. During the crisis of the Austrian Creditanstalt in 1931, France was only willing to help if Austria abandoned its plans for a customs union with Germany. In the League of Nations bonds of 1923 and 1932, France pressed for Austria to recommit itself not to join Germany for at least 20 years.

After the elimination of the Austrian parliament in 1933, France tried in vain to force the return of democracy in Austria by not servicing aid payments. Although the Socialists were persecuted in Austria from 1934 and a Socialist government was in power in France at the same time, diplomatic relations with France were better during this period than before. The reason for this was that for the first time the Austrian government itself now had the goal of an independent Austria and was thus in line with France's wishes. This changed abruptly with the July Agreement of 1936 between Nazi Germany and Austria. Although the German Reich recognized Austria's independence in it, the French saw the agreement preparing the way for the later Anschluss.

After the Anschluss to the German Reich was completed on March 13, 1938, and Austria subsequently ceased to exist as an independent state, the governments of France and England each lodged protest notes. However, the French government had to accept the annexation on April 2, 1938. Diplomatic relations were now conducted through the central offices in Berlin until the outbreak of war, but France tried to remain in contact with Austrian officials, although from now on there were no official contacts in Austria. In Paris, Otto Habsburg campaigned for the restoration of the monarchy, which was also considered by the French side. After the Occupation of northern France 1941 some Germans and Austrians fled to the freer south of France.

After 1945
After the Third Reich was defeated in May 1945, Germany and Austria were occupied by the Allies. At first, the USA and France did not want to take over an occupation zone in Austria. But after the USA agreed, the French also took over a part. They got North Tyrol and Vorarlberg, plus a quarter of Vienna. France wanted to prevent a renewed annexation to Germany at all costs and they advocated again for an independent Austria. France pursued this goal on three levels. First, they acted not as an occupying power but as a liberator and demanded reparations only to be able to finance their own troops in the country. The second aspect concerned cultural cooperation. France did not limit itself to the establishment and operation of cultural institutions, but also promoted local initiatives that otherwise would not have existed so quickly. The last point concerned influencing the future state treaty that was to come into being in 1955. With the treaty Austry got its sovereignty back and became a neutral country.

After 1955, Austria and France established problem-free and cooperative relations. In 1960 Austria became part of the European Free Trade Association and concluded a Free trade agreement with the European Economic Community (of which France was a part of) in 1973. After the end of the Cold War Austria became a member of the European Union in 1995. Numerous bilateral agreements have been concluded between Austria and France and citizens of both countries can freely visit each other.

Foreign relations exist between the alpine nations of Austria and Switzerland. Both countries have had diplomatic relations since the Middle Ages.  The Habsburgs, who ruled Austria for more than six centuries, are originally from Aargau, Switzerland. The two countries are predominantly German-speaking. Austria has an embassy in Bern, a general consulate in Zürich and seven honorary consulates (in Basel, Chur, Geneva, Lausanne, Lugano, Lucerne and St. Gallen). Switzerland has an embassy in Vienna and six honorary consulates (in Bregenz, Graz, Innsbruck, Klagenfurt, Linz, and Salzburg). Together, both countries organized the Euro 2008.

History
Both countries have maintained diplomatic relations since the Middle Ages. The Swiss were able to secure their independence from the House of Habsburg in 1386 by winning the Battle of Sempach, which was followed by a series of other battles during the Swiss-Habsburg Wars for Swiss independence. The Habsburgs, who ruled Austria for more than six centuries, were originally from Aargau, Switzerland, which was conquered by the Swiss in 1415. Because small Switzerland became a Republic early on, while Austria was part of the larger Habsburg monarchy and a major European power for many centuries, the political history of the two countries differed considerably. In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, various agreements occurred that influenced the subsequent demarcation of borders between the two countries. In 1770, the Canton of Zürich acquired the villages of Ramsen and Dörflingen from Austria, which later became part of the Canton of Schaffhausen. With the cession of Fricktal and Tarasp (1803) as well as Rhäzüns (1819), the Habsburgs lost their last possessions in Switzerland.

19th century
After the end of the Napoleonic Wars, Austria recognized Switzerland's independence at the Congress of Vienna. However, relations were strained. Switzerland accepted republican refugees, which displeased reactionary Austria under Metternich, for example in the 1820s when numerous persecutes from Turin and Naples found asylum in Switzerland, where Austria had put down uprisings. In 1823, after Austria threatened to invade, Switzerland was forced to adopt a law, which included surveillance of the domestic press and restrictions on the right of asylum. After the start of the Regeneration period in 1830 and the end of the Restoration in Switzerland, Metternich wanted again to launch an attack on Switzerland in 1832, but France and the United Kingdom refused to aid him.

During the Sonderbund War of 1847, Metternich supported the conservative and Catholic camp, and Austria provided 100,000 guilders to the Sonderbund. However, due to the onset of the revolutions of 1848/1849, the Austrians were no longer able to intervene effectively, as other problems had become more pressing. To Austria's displeasure, arms and soldiers reached the Kingdom of Lombardy–Venetia from Switzerland to support the uprising there against Austrian rule. Overall, relations in the first half of the 19th century were mixed, as both sides distrusted each other. There was also little economic exchange, as the road connections between the two countries were hardly developed and a protectionist economic policy was pursued.

The admission of Italian refugees from Milan in 1853 again led to a crisis, and Austria blocked the border with Ticino. The blockade was lifted in 1855. After Austria's defeat in the Austro-Prussian War in 1866, relations became better, partly because there were fears in Switzerland about Prussia after the Neuchâtel Crisis 1856/1857. A postal and trade agreement was concluded between the two states and a dispute over the course of the Swiss border with Tyrol was settled in 1868. Even the assassination of Empress Elisabeth in Geneva by an anarchist in 1898 did not strain relations, as Emperor Franz Joseph I was lenient towards the Swiss. In the second half of the 19th century, with better political relations, economic relations were also significantly intensified and several trade agreements were concluded between the two countries. Projects such as the Gotthard Tunnel also strengthened the economic integration of the Alpine regions.

1900−1945
The dissolution of Austria-Hungary by the Treaty of Saint-Germain (1919) created ambiguities regarding Switzerland's legal relations with German Austria, for example regarding Austria's national debt to the Swiss. Switzerland therefore recognized the First Republic of Austria only on January 9, 1920, which angered the Austrians. In Vorarlberg, the population also demanded annexation to Switzerland in a referendum in 1919, which was rejected by Switzerland because of the change in the linguistic and confessional balance in Switzerland that would have occurred. The numerous disputes between Austria and Switzerland were not settled until 1925 and 1927, respectively, with the conclusion of treaties, so that diplomatic relations normalized.

The rise of Adolf Hitler in Germany caused alarm in Switzerland. After the Austrofascist Engelbert Dollfuß seized power, the political left in Switzerland showed solidarity with the persecuted opposition. Austria's annexation by Nazi Germany in 1938 led to a precarious situation for Switzerland, and thousands of refugees crossed the border into Switzerland. Switzerland then attempted to strengthen its defensive capabilities. However, it was forced to diplomatically recognize the annexation of Austria due to Germany's overwhelming power. After the end of the Second World War, Switzerland provided Austria with humanitarian aid in the form of donations amounting to at least 53.5 million Swiss francs.

After the Second World War
The Second Republic of Austria was proclaimed on April 27, 1945, and recognized by Switzerland on November 2. Soon after, diplomatic missions were established, and close relations were build even before Austria's sovereignty, strengthened by the aid that the Swiss provided to Austria. In 1955, Austria finally regained its sovereignty and became a neutral state on the model of Switzerland. Austrian neutrality was distinguished by a more active foreign policy during the Cold War, and in 1979 Vienna competed with Bern for the site as the third UN headquarters, with Vienna prevailing. Austria became closely integrated into the European economy and Switzerland also benefited from the post-war boom. A free trade agreement between Switzerland and Austria was established in 1972. Cooperation between the two countries was also very close in other areas, and by 2008 the two countries had concluded more than 80 bilateral agreements.

Economic relations
For Switzerland, Austria is one of the most important trading partners. In 2022, Austria was Switzerland's seventh most important trading partner in terms of trade volume. In 2021, Switzerland was Austria's fourth most important trading partner. In the same year, Austria exported goods worth 8.17 billion euros and in return imported goods worth 9.73 billion euros to Switzerland. On a per capita basis, Switzerland is the largest consumer of Austrian goods and services.

The Austrian state of Vorarlberg, the Swiss cantons of Appenzell Ausserrhoden, Appenzell Innerrhoden, St. Gallen, Schaffhausen, Thurgau and Zürich, the country of Liechtenstein and parts of Southern Germany cooperate as part of the European Bodensee region.
