Franz Ferdinand was an advocate of increased federalism and widely believed to favor tribalism, under which Austria-Hungary would be reorganized by combining the Slavic lands within the Austro-Hungarian empire into a third crown. Supportive of this idealism, the Archduke has organized a tour around Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina as a political campaign plan. However, the Archduke wouldn’t knew what was coming next. It was said by an eyewitness that the ‘Black Hand’ nationalist group in Serbia was involved in the assassination.
