Best Answer

Essentially, yes. "The Black hand" was a secret nationalistic Serb society who determined to assassinate Archduke Franz Ferdinand when he accepted the invitation of Bosnia's governor to inspect the army manoeuvres outside Sarajevo. When the Archduke and his wife were assassinated on 28 June 1914, the assassination led to war between Austria and Serbia, which escalated into World War I as other European countries allied themselves with one side or the other.
