Well... there was an Austrian Research Institute that already covered that... about 70% of all non Europeans mistake Austria with Australia according to that study...

Also... there are also Kangaroos in Austria... but only in zoos...

Why don't we all just call it Österreich... that would prevent a lot of mistakes^^

No, it would only lead to more, because most people wouldn't bother to spell Österreich correctly and just type Osterreich instead!

Then how about Oesterreich^^ 

ooh... now I get it... Osterreich... hehehe

You'll probably end up hating how people are pronoucing it then. Those whose first language isn't German, that is. We used to practise by saying Österreich in German class, it's a difficult one >_>

Oesterreich would be weird in English since the "oe" combination is usually a long i.
