Wrong Street.. World war 1..
It seems like you're referring to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. This event occurred on June 28, 1914, in Sarajevo, Bosnia, and it is considered one of the catalysts for World War I. Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, was assassinated along with his wife Sophie by Gavrilo Princip, a Bosnian Serb nationalist. The assassination triggered a chain of events that eventually led to the outbreak of World War I, as Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, leading to a series of alliances being invoked across Europe.

00:00On 28th June 1914, the Prince of Austria-Hungary was on a visit to Bosnia with his wife.
00:07As he was passing through the streets of his car, he was screaming at people that
00:11at one point, his driver had turned the car in the wrong lane.
00:15Although this turn was taken by mistake,
00:17but what did anyone know that only the result of coming in the wrong lane
00:21would have to be seen by the world in World War 1,
00:24in which the death of four people and the loss of a couple of dollars.
00:28Yes, let's know how this mistake led the world to World War 1.
00:33Viewers, before World War 1, that is, in the early stages of the 19th century,
00:37the map of the world was very different from today.
00:40There were big states like the Russian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
00:45The most important country here was Bosnia-Herzegovina,
00:48from where all these problems begin.
00:51The Austro-Hungarian Empire captured Bosnia in 1908 and began to control all its affairs.
00:57Most of the Slavic people lived in Bosnia,
01:00while there were many Slavic people in Serbia, the neighboring country of Bosnia.
01:04Therefore, there were sympathies between the people of both countries.
01:08But Serbia was not part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
01:11The Austro-Hungarian Empire wanted to attack Serbia and make it part of its empire.
01:17This would bring Serbia under their control, including Bosnia,
01:20and the distances between the people here would end.
01:23But the people here did not want this.
01:25The Slavic people were quite angry about this plan of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
01:30Their desire was that Serbia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, where the Slavic people live,
01:35should become one free country, which should be called Greater Serbia or Yugoslavia.
01:40But for now, they had no choice but to hate the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
01:45Perhaps the Austro-Hungarian Empire would have attacked Serbia, but they were afraid of Russia.
01:51Because Russia did not want the Austro-Hungarian Empire to grow in this direction.
01:55Therefore, to fight Serbia, the Austro-Hungarian Empire joined forces with Germany and put them in the back-up.
02:01And Russia made an alliance with France.
02:03There, the nationalists of Serbia and Bosnia gradually began to form an organization for their freedom.
02:09On the first day, the purpose of the organization was to protest against the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
02:13But with time, this militant organization was formed and the blood was shed.
02:18During this time, another organization came into existence, which was named the Black Hand.
02:22The slogan of this organization was that the Greater Serbia or Yugoslavia should become one.
02:26To fulfill their purpose, this organization was ready to kill anyone.
02:31Meanwhile, a 19-year-old boy named Abrilo Principi,
02:35who had always dreamed of a free country, Yugoslavia,
02:38joined the Black Hand organization.
02:41Now they work day and night to find out how to get rid of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
02:45They also attacked the officers of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
02:49But they could not get rid of the Empire in any way.
02:53In 1914, they were informed that the Prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire,
02:57Archduke Franz Ferdinand, was going to visit Bosnia.
03:00As soon as this news was received, the members of the Black Hand were happy
03:03and a dangerous plan was going to be launched in their favor.
03:05First of all, the visit of Prince Archduke was made.
03:08The location of his room was found.
03:10It was found that he was going to inaugurate a new museum in the city hall.
03:14The Black Hand made a plan that their three shooters would be stationed at different locations.
03:19The Prince's car was also parked near the shooter.
03:21He would first throw a grenade and then,
03:23with cyanide pill and a sedative, he would also jump into the river.
03:27Their goal was that after killing the Prince, the killer would also die.
03:31And even if the cyanide pill didn't work,
03:33his death was certain after jumping into the river.
03:35This was being done because the Black Hand was a secret organization
03:39and they didn't want anyone to know about their plan.
03:43While the members of the Black Hand were making this plan,
03:46Gavrilo Princip, who had a passion for freedom since childhood,
03:49was making another plan to kill the Prince.
03:5228th June, 1921, was the day when this plan was going to be executed.
03:56The shooters sent by the Black Hand didn't have any experience in this work.
04:00When the Prince and his wife's car passed through the river,
04:03the first shooter, out of fear, couldn't throw a grenade.
04:07When the car passed by the second shooter, it started to shake.
04:10And as long as he was thinking, the car passed by him.
04:13Now all the responsibility was on the third shooter.
04:15In front of him, when the Prince's car passed by,
04:17he quickly threw the bomb.
04:19But his aim was not right.
04:21Instead of the grenade, the Prince's car fell a little far from his car,
04:24causing 20 people in the crowd to be injured.
04:27And no one was alive in the Prince.
04:29After doing this, he quickly took his cyanide pill,
04:32which was useless without the old money.
04:35He didn't take his life in the capture,
04:37but he just fainted a little.
04:39After doing all this, he entered the river as per the plan.
04:42But maybe he was unlucky today.
04:44On this day, the water of the river was just a little more than a meter.
04:48Because the river had dried up in this weather.
04:50The police arrived at the scene and arrested him.
04:53And thus, the conspiracy to kill the Prince failed.
04:55But the twist in the story is still left.
04:58Gavrilo Princip was still on his Kofia mission.
05:01After the bomb was dropped, the Prince and his wife were taken to security
05:04and transferred to secure places.
05:06Prince Argyu complains to his wife in anger,
05:09that we have come to visit your city,
05:11but you have bombed Mayastar Bagh.
05:14When the Prince is told that 20 people have been injured due to the explosion,
05:18the Prince changes his schedule and decides to go to the hospital instead of the museum,
05:22so that he can know the extent of the injuries.
05:25But the driver does not get the news of the change of schedule and route.
05:29The Prince comes back and sits with his wife in his car
05:32and leaves for the hospital.
05:34On the other hand, Gavrilo Princip stands on the road to the museum
05:37and waits for the Prince's car to attack him.
05:40Meanwhile, the Prince's car makes a turn in the lane leading to the museum.
05:43The driver, who did not know that the Prince had to go to the hospital,
05:46turns the Prince's car in the lane leading to the museum.
05:49In the same lane, where Gavrilo Princip is standing.
05:52The police tells the driver about the salute
05:54and tells him to turn the car and go to the hospital.
05:57While reversing, the car slows down
05:59and Gavrilo Princip does not have a better chance than this.
06:02Gavrilo Princip takes out his pistol and fires at the car.
06:05The Prince and his wife are killed on the spot.
06:08When the news of the Prince's death reaches the king of the Austro-Hungarian Empire,
06:11he attacks Serbia in a fit of anger.
06:14On the other hand, Russia, which was already supporting Serbia,
06:17thinks that the powerful Austro-Hungarian Empire wants to take over Serbia.
06:20That's why he stands in front of the Austro-Hungarian Empire at the wedding of Serbia.
06:24There, Germany, which had already promised to support the Austro-Hungarian Empire,
06:28also comes against Russia.
06:30Seeing this, he takes out his pistol in front of France
06:33and attacks Germany together with Russia.
06:35France and Russia played a big role in suppressing the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
06:38That's why they took out their weapons in Germany's support.
06:41The UK, which had allied with France in the Middle East against the Austro-Hungarian Empire,
06:46also allied with France.
06:48As soon as they see this, Japan and the USA are also defeated.
06:51And instead of going to the wrong lane, World War I begins.
06:56It is said that if the French car had not gone to the wrong lane that day,
07:00perhaps it would not have died and World War I would not have begun.
