Styria, Federal state in southeastern Austria.
The territory spans 16,399 square kilometers with mountains in the north, wine regions in the south, and forests covering 60 percent of the land.
The region evolved from a margraviate in 1056 to a duchy in 1180, gaining prominence when the Habsburg dynasty unified Austria in 1282.
The state maintains five universities and multiple research centers, serving 63,000 students and contributing to Austria's educational excellence.
Transportation infrastructure includes Graz Thalerhof airport and Hauptbahnhof Graz train station, connecting the region to major European destinations.
The Erzberg mountain contains iron ore deposits that Romans first extracted, establishing a mining tradition that continues to the present day.
