Franz Ferdinand did not want to go but Emperor Franz Joseph ordered him there. Curiously Princip was in the wrong place until the car driver made a wrong turn. Such is fate
Today, on the 100th anniversary of Sarajevo, Bosnian Serbs in that city are dedicating a statue of the assassin Gavrilo Prinzip. A reenactor will fire a pistol into the air twice, to commemorate the event that unleashed the war that cost fourteen million lives.
Go figure.
