So Austria in krautspeak is "Österreich" or Eastern Realm, right? Where are the other directional kraut realms?
I'm guessing the westenreich is the old carolingan empire, aka the frogs and the swamp krauts. So what would be the nordenreich?
Also don't look up what the "südreich" is lmao. Or do. It's actually pretty funny.

Because Wessex, Essex, and Sussex were claimed by Saxons. The area that would have been "Norsex" (Mercia) was controlled by Angles. This was before we all just agreed they were one thing.

Norse names for stuff are funny, because they are literally just making shit up.
Yeah sure man, Istanbul is called "The big city", there's an Irish town which is basically named "Bitch-pool" in Norse

It's because Austria used to be the very eastern domain of the duchy of Bavaria. The "Eastern March" of Bavaria, and this got translated into German.
Bavaria did not have a northern frontier march or a western one, or a southern one, so there are no south-reich, west-reich or north-reich.
The reason for the "Sudreich" being Judea is because the area was once divided into Judea in the south and Israel in the north, it has no relation to Austria. Now the HRE did claim Palestine through Frederick II being married to Isabella II of Jerusalem, and the Hohenstaufen line had de jure control of the kingdom of Jerusalem for like two generations, but that was claimed under the name Jerusalem. (Because that name carried a lot of importance to Christians)
