War Propaganda
This propaganda tries to bring the nationalism to the Austro-Hungarians when their soon-to-be ruler, Archduke Francis Ferdinand, is brutally murdered by a Serbian from the nationalist group of the Black Hand. This event has great importance to the war as a whole because it was the main event that started dividing nations against each other. The Austro-Hungarian Empire entered the Great War after declaring war against Serbia because of their response to the Ultimatum that was supposed to extend their control over the Serbian people who, meanwhile, sought their independence and own sovereignty.
