The extensive and deep rooted interactions between
Austria and Turkey can still easily be traced in the
family and place names, mostly familiar in present
day Austria, and also in some of the dialects of the
federal provinces like Steirmask and Kainten in
which numerous loan– words of the Turkish origin
are used. In the comity of world nations, Austria is
the third major European power to develop relations
with Muslims and it came into contact with the
Islamic world through the Ottoman Empire that was
knocking the doors of the Eastern Europe in the
fourteenth century. After the conquest of
Constantinople (1453), the Turks undertook frequent
expeditions which took them further and further to
the west and thus became a permanent threat to the
Hapsburg patrimonial lands. Twice the Ottoman
arises reached the gates of Vienna (1529 and 1683)
and their proximity affected the development of the
knowledge of Muslim society and Islam in Europe.
This political expansion led to a new subject of study
Islam in its Ottoman context, and Islam being now
largely identified with the Turks and their rule.
