Austria-Hungary had a strong armament, automobile, and aviation industry centered around Czechoslovakia. Firms such as Skoda (artillery, automobiles, and steel), Steyr Mannlicher (firearms), Lohner-Werke, and Tatra were very influential in the 1910s and went on to become even more influential in independent Czechoslovakia.
Many leading scientists and inventors were associated with Austria-Hungary as well, including Ferdinand Porsche, Hermann Oberth, and Erwin Schrödinger.
The economy of Austria-Hungary was surging before World War I too, although that was mainly because it lagged behind the other great powers in industrialization.
Politically, there were proposals to transform the Dual Monarchy into a Triple Monarchy (Poland and Croatia being commonly proposed as the third member). Franz Ferdinand even had plans for a United States of Greater Austria drawn up.
