Best Answer

After the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815, Europe fell into a century of "peace." Countries didn't go to war because they couldn't afford. But there were still conflicts between countries. You can think of those conflicts like pieces of dynamite being stacked on top of each other. The Archduke's assassination was the match set to the fuse. It came at the right time and hit in a volatile place.
