Some background information. The Ostmark is the naming for Austria in the 3rd Reich. The Franken had in early-middle ages a great empire where also the name for this part was Marcha Orientalis (Ostland) this was the Bairische Ostland. THe Bavarian tribal duchy was in that time much bigger then present day. The Austrian HJ was forbidden from 1933 onwards and thus they had to go to Germany to have HJ rallies or meetings.
