Thanks much to everyone for the corroboration that Germany and Austria *ARE *actually two different countries! Maybe this is reflective of the American education system, which puts 99% of the emphasis on U.S. history, and acts like the rest of the world barely exists.
Sellers could just start putting "U.S." or "non-U.S." on *ALL *their items, and not worry about *WHICH *country *ANY *of them actually come from! That would sure be a time-saver!
