From Latin Austrasia, from Austrasii + -ia. Austrasii, referring to the eastern Franks, is a Latinization of Frankish *Austerliudi, meaning "eastern folk"; see ostar and liuti. Alternatively, *Oster-rike has been suggested, meaning "eastern kingdom"; see Proto-West Germanic *austr and *rīkī.

Austrasia (rarely Austria, both meaning "eastern land") formed the northeastern portion of the Kingdom of the Merovingian Franks, comprising parts of the territory of present-day eastern France, western Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. Metz served as its capital, although some Austrasian kings ruled from Rheims, Trier, and Cologne. Austrasia was also used as a term for northeast Italy, as opposed to Neustria, which meant the northwest.
