During almost half of 6th century, most of present-day Austrian territory were part of the Ostrogothic Kingdom, which mostly concentrated in the Italian peninsula after its conquest in the year 493.

If a large number of Ostrogoth clans/tribes decided to settle in most, if not all, of present-day Austria, how it would affect its destiny and place on world history, specifically its relationship with its neighbors?

(This challenge was first asked as a "plausibility check" in Bacchanalia Facebook group).

*I know I personally felt that this scenario would possibly scream of "ASB" or even implausible, but at least I tried.
