After being conquered by the Lǣdenware, Huns, Lombards, Ostrogoths, Bavarii and Franks, Ēastrīce was under the rīce of the Babenbergs from the 10th to the 13th century. The Babenbergs were then succeeded by the Habsburgs, whose line continued to govern Ēastrīce until the 20th century.

After the abolition of the Hālig Rōmānisc Rīce in 1806, the Hēafodrīce of Austria was founded, which was transformed in 1867 into the double-monarchy Ēastrīce-Hungary. The hēafodrīce was split into several independent states after the defeat of the Middel Cræftum in World War I, leading to Ēastrīce as it is today.

In 1918 wearþ Ēastrīce a lēodaþing, which lasted until 1934 when the chancellor Engelbert Dollfuß established a dictatorship.

Ēastrīce was annexed by Nazi Germany in 1938 (sēo Þēodnes). After the defeat of the Nazis, the Allies occupied Ēastrīce at the end of World War II until 1955, when the land again became a fully independent lēodaþing under the condition that it remained neutral (sēo ēac: Ēastrīclic Rīces Nǣming). However, after the collapse of communism in Ostlic Europa, Ēastrīce became increasingly involved in Europisc affairs, and in 1995, Ēastrīce joined the European Union, and the Euro feoh system in 1999.

Se Þēodisca nama Österreich can bēon āreaht sāmwell in Englisc swā hwæðer ēastern realm oþþe ēastern rīce, which is derived from the Eald Þēodisc Ostarrîchi. The term probably originates in a lēodþēaw translation of the Medieval Latin name for the region: Marchia orientalis, which translates as "eastern border," as it was situated at the eastern edge of the Holy Roman Empire. Interestingly, the derivation of the Latin name from the original Old German gives rise to the use of "Aust-" for east, rather than south as in Classical Latin.
