Explanation:

Sub - question 1: Who was Archduke Franz Ferdinand?

Archduke Franz Ferdinand was the heir to the throne of the Austro - Hungarian Empire. His assassination was a significant event that led to the outbreak of World War I.

On June 28, 1914, in Sarajevo (the capital of Bosnia), Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated by Gavrilo Princip, a member of the Black Hand organization. The previous student's answer was incorrect as Austria - Hungary declared war on Serbia on July 28, 1914, not on June 28, 1914.

Gavrilo Princip belonged to the secret organization Black Hand. The Black Hand wanted self - determination for all people of Slavic background, including Serbian people living in Bosnia. Princip hoped that the assassination would start a rebellion that would lead to Austria - Hungary losing its land in the Balkans.

Archduke Franz Ferdinand was the heir to the throne of the Austro - Hungarian Empire.
