Further Austria (German: Vorderösterreich, or Vorlande) was the collective name of the Habsburg territories in south-western Germany, Alsace, and Vorarlberg. Further Austria was comprised of the Sundgau (southern Alsace), the Breisgau, Bregenz in Vorarlberg, and many scattered territories north of Lake Constance. The original territories of the Habsburgs in the Aargau and in modern Switzerland were not part of Further Austria, except the Fricktal which remained Austrian until 1797, and were lost to the Old Swiss Confederacy in the 14th Century by the Battles of Morgarten (1315) and Sempach (1386). Further Austria was ruled by the Dukes of Austria until 1379, and the Counts of the Tyrol after.
