The Wrong Turn that Changed History: The Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand

De (autor): Robert Walker

They were five boys with bombs in their pockets and a dream of freedom in their hearts. Their target was an empire.

On the morning of June 28, 1914, the city of Sarajevo was a stage set for pageantry, ready to welcome the heir to the mighty Habsburg throne . But hidden in the cheering crowds, a conspiracy was about to unfold. Scattered along the parade route were young assassins, their nerves fraying, their hands clutching Belgian pistols and crude bombs, ready to die for a cause they barely understood.

After a bungled first attempt leaves the city in chaos, the mission seems lost . The Archduke is safe, and the plotters are scattered. But history has a final, shocking twist in store. A simple error-a chauffeur's wrong turn down an unfamiliar street-will give one young assassin a second, impossible chance.

From the secret meetings of the Black Hand to the final, fatal seconds on a Sarajevo street corner, this is a gripping, cinematic account of how a meticulously planned assassination descended into chaos, only to succeed through the sheer, unpredictable force of a historical accident.
