The Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand
Europe in 1914 was basically a powder keg waiting for a match to set the whole thing on fire. Tensions were high in Austria Hungary as the new liberated Serbia was giving the area to be known as Bosnia ideas of independence. The problem with that is Austria wasn't really in the business of letting its occupied lands have things like freedom. Well this didn't sit well with some of the locals as you can imagine and one man ended up doing something that changed the course of human history, starting World War 1 by assassinating Archduke Fran Ferdinand, the heir to the throne of Austria Hungary. How did one death lead to what would be the death of millions and the reshaping of Europe. Tune in and find out.
