Postwar imprisonment and release
I've expanded the section of the article on this topic, which had previously been a single sentence. I've added four references, mostly from newspaper articles.--2605:E000:87C5:1200:9C43:5080:ECB4:965 (talk) 15:26, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
Austria-Hungaria
Austria-Hungaria did not come to existence before 1867. When Porsche was born in Bohemia, it was part of the Austrian Empire, which was part of the German Confederation. I also suggest to call him german-speaking Bohemian instead of austrian. In my opinion the most precise description for Porsches nationality would be "German-speaking Bohemian in the Austrian Empire.--Malzkorn (talk) 19:37, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
- But Porsche was born in the 1870s. It was Austro-Hungary then, although he was born in a bit that would now be the Czech Republic.
- What does ETHNICITY mean? I know Wikipedia has weeird meanings for common things. He got german citizenship under the nazis but he was still ethnically Bohemian. He was born as an Austro-Hungarian citizen, not German. Riveted Fox (talk) 12:17, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
