No, I think Teutons were an ancient Germanic tribe that lived in Denmark.
But the English people use the word Teutons for Germans, if they want to express the primitive, countrified and violent character-shares of this people. But it is not the official denomination, more a cuss.

The language in Austria is not exactly the same as the language in Germany.If Austria became part of Germany it would cause many imbalances

Hello Pheasant,
Do you think John Calvin's principles gave birth to the modern day right-wing movement (capitalism, free market, individual liberty, personal responsibility etc.,)? Calvin believed that the Church is a "Spiritual Republic".
I personally believe that is what the Bible teaches and it is right to consider the Church as a "Spiritual Republic". Calvin did not invent capitalism, but he did teach that one of the rewards of hard work is wealth. His philosophy of work allowed capitalism to flourish where it was practiced.
