"Gotta erhalte Franz den Kaiser" (say: got air-HALT-ə frants dən KY-zər, meaning "God Save Francis the Emperor") was the national anthem of Austria-Hungary. It was sometimes known as the "Kaiserhymne" (say: KY-zər-HIM-nə). It was a personal hymn for Emperor Francis II of the Holy Roman Empire.

The words of the song were written by Lorenz Leopold Haschka in 1797, and in that same year, the music was composed by the famous musician Joseph Haydn. The melody would later be used in other songs, such as "Deutschlandlied", the German national anthem.

After the empire broke up, the hymn was later replaced by "Deutschösterreich, du herrliches Land" in Austria, and "Himnusz" in Hungary.

Due to the popularity of the anthem, it has been translated into many different languages, including Hungarian, Czech, Croatian, Polish, Romanian, Italian, English, Slovene, Banat Romanian, Ukrainian, and Friulian.
