Austria were active participants in the Spanish colonial empire (Like how many people named Habsburg were involved in the running of the Spanish colonial empire do you think?). Hungary, Slovenia, Slovakia and the Czech republic fall under that umbrella.
Malta's economy was literally piracy of North African shipping lanes for 400 years what are you doing.
