Dear Readers, You have had a long and often dangerous journey, but you are now safe in Austria. Many private and public organizations will take care of you here. You will apply for asylum here or in another European country. But for now you are in Austria, and with this „special edition“ of the Austrian daily newspaper KURIER, we want to clarify some important questions for you and inform you about our country. Austria is a democratic republic and a member of the European Union. We have a long history in the heart of Europe – in the year 996 our country was mentioned for the first time – which was unfortunately marked by many wars. Due to World War I (1914–1918) the Austrian Empire was reduced to a small state and became a republic.

. After World War II, which Austriaexperiencedundertheterrible dictatorship of Adolf Hitler, a democracy was established, which brought freedom and wealth. Many Austrians now want to help people who are not doing as well as we are. I sincerely hope that you and your families will feel at home in Europe – or will be able to get back to your own homes when the war is finally over. Helmut Brandstätter Chief Editor, KURIER
