Identitarian Movement Austria (Identitäre Bewegung Österreich),
sometimes spelled Identitarian Movement of Austria (Identitäre Bewegung
Österreichs), was founded in 2012. It is modelled after the
Identitarian Bloc (Bloc Identitaire) of
France.

The flags are yellow with a black "Spartan lambda", or the same design with
reversed colors. Considering the frequency of appearing on the photos available
online, the first of these variants might be used more than the latter. The
national flag of Austria is also widely used, as well as the state flags.
Another flag which is frequently seen at their rallies looks like the copy of
the 1816 flag of Jena Students League (Jenaer
Burschenschaft) or the flag from 1817
Wartburg festival. That flag seems to be used by some students
associations (Burschenschaften) in Austria
which are promoting pan-German ideas and whose members might take part in the
Identitarian Movement as well, although the organization does not seem to
promote German nationalism as such.
