Franz Ferdinand was not a duke; he held the title of Archduke of Austria. He was the heir presumptive to the Austro-Hungarian throne and a member of the Habsburg dynasty, which ruled over the Austro-Hungarian Empire. His assassination in 1914 in Sarajevo was one of the key events that triggered World War I.
