What did Franz Ferdinand do in his last hour?

In his last hour on June 28, 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary was in Sarajevo, where he was scheduled to inspect military maneuvers. After surviving an assassination attempt earlier that day, he decided to visit the injured in the hospital. However, during his journey, his driver took a wrong turn, leading them to a street where Gavrilo Princip, one of the assassins, happened to be. Princip seized the opportunity and shot both Franz Ferdinand and his wife, Sophie, fatally wounding them.

Who was really to blame for archduke franz Ferdinand's death?

The person to blame was the driver of Franz Ferdinand's because he turned the wrong way which made the person from the black hand gang pull out a gun and shoot 2 bullets ware fired and the bullets hit his wife and him. -I think that the driver was a member of the Black hand gang The driver did not make a wrong turn. Archduke Ferdinand ordered him to drive to the hospital to visit the people who had been injured in the shooting early that day that was meant to kill him. The least congested route brought him past the cafe where Gavrilo Princip, the man who killed Ferdinand and who can actually be blamed, was eating. Princip acted to complete the mission he was there for and fired. Only the Black Hand members who couldn't bring themselves to find a legal way to handle their nonexistent problems are at fault.
