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.
