このコンテンツについて

 In Sarajevo on 28 June 1914, a young Bosnian student named Gavrilo Princip fired a shot which would become the deadliest in history. With the help of co-conspirators from underground nationalist group Young Bosnia, he assassinated Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie during their imperial visit to the capital. Their deaths set off a domino effect of ultimatums, alliances, and mobilisations across Europe, and within weeks, the continent was engulfed in World War I (The Great War), a conflict that ultimately claimed millions of lives. Was Princip a terrorist, a freedom fighter, or simply a desperate youth caught in history’s tide? This episode explores the life, motives, and legacy of the 19-year-old whose pistol transformed Bosnia’s struggle into a global war. Few individuals have altered the course of history so suddenly, or so tragically.
