A few years later a treaty of inheritance (Georgenberg; 1186) was concluded between the dukes Leopold V of Austria (reigned 1177–94), a son of Henry II Jasomirgott, and Otakar IV of Steiermark, the ailing last Otakar ruler. When Otakar died in 1192, Leopold succeeded him, and thus the Babenbergs came into the inheritance.
Leopold is supposed to have removed his sword belt after a battle leaving a white stripe across a blood-soaked tunic. According to legend this is the origin of the red-white-red of the Babenberg coat of arms - and ultimately of the Austrian national flag.
