Given the fact that was the eastern borderlands of the Franks and covers roughly Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands I’m gonna assume the only connection to Austria these territory has is the Aust portion. Also Austria evolved out of Otto the Greats Holy Roman Empire not the Carolingian Empire though admittedly it does have its roots in Charlamagnes campaign against the Avars.
Point is East is relative, the East Coast of Asia is to my West.

So eastern Europe won’t be eastern for long.
