Best Answer

Gavrilo Princip was a member of the Black Hand, a a Serbian underground resistance group opposed to Austro-Hungarian government and it's occupation of Serbia. They did not want to be part of the Austro-Hungarian empire, and they did not want to pay taxes to them.

There is also some indication he had a personal dislike for the Archduke.

Princip had tuberculosis and knew he was going to die soon. He assassinated the Archduke as a final act of "patriotism" believeing he would not live long enough to receive punishment.

Serbia was controlled by the Austro-Hungarian empier. They(The Austro-Hungarian) people used to treat the Serbian people really badly. Many people might think that this is why Princip was angry and killed the Archduke. However, my opinion is that he killed Franz Ferdinand because he(Princip) thought that if he killed the next heir of the thorne of Austro- Hungarian empier, his country would be free.
