Gavrilo Princip was a Bosnian Serb nationalist and a member of the secret society known as the Black Hand. He is most famously known for assassinating Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria on June 28, 1914, in Sarajevo. This act is widely considered to have triggered the events leading to World War I. Princip's motivations were rooted in his desire for the independence of South Slavic peoples from Austro-Hungarian rule.
