Whenever one here's the name, Franz Ferdinand, they will always think of World War I. This is because the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand was the spark that ignited WWI. Franz was next in line for the throne of Austria-Hungary. He was assassinated in Sarajevo, along with his wife Sophie, by a memeber of the terrorist group, the Black Hand. A month later on July 28, 1914 Austria declared war on Serbia.
