My Grandfather Heard Shot That Killed Archduke

The War That Changed the World

Available for over a year

A world of empires entered WW1; the world that came after was one of nation states. Balkan historians joined the 麻豆社 broadcaster Allan Little to discuss the drive for nationhood during World War One and its impact on nationalism to this day. Was the Archduke鈥檚 assassin a nationalist? (Photograph: A picture acquired from the historical archives of Sarajevo on June 28, 2014 shows Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophia riding in their car, minutes before their assassination on June 28, 1914.)
