The Austrian Regional League is the third-highest division in Austrian football, after the Austrian Bundesliga and the First League. It is divided into three conferences: East (German: Ost), covering the states of Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland; Central (Mitte), covering the provinces of Styria, Carinthia, Upper Austria and the exclave of East Tyrol; and West, covering the provinces of Salzburg, Tyrol (with the exception of East Tyrol) and Vorarlberg.
Famous quotes containing the words austrian and/or league:
“The war shook down the Tsardom, an unspeakable abomination, and made an end of the new German Empire and the old Apostolic Austrian one. It ... gave votes and seats in Parliament to women.... But if society can be reformed only by the accidental results of horrible catastrophes ... what hope is there for mankind in them? The war was a horror and everybody is the worse for it.”
—George Bernard Shaw (18561950)
“Stereotypes fall in the face of humanity. You toodle along, thinking that all gay men wear leather after dark and should never, ever be permitted around a Little League field. And then one day your best friend from college, the one your kids adore, comes out to you.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
