Franz Ferdinand, the Archduke of Austria-Hungary, sought to strengthen the empire's influence in the Balkans by integrating Bosnia and Herzegovina, which had been annexed in 1908. His interest in Bosnia was partly motivated by the desire to stabilize the region amid rising nationalist tensions. Additionally, he aimed to counteract Serbian nationalism and assert Austria-Hungary's dominance over the Slavic peoples, which ultimately contributed to the geopolitical tensions leading up to World War I.
