The Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand was visiting Serbia, which was an extremely controversial decision considering the relationship between the Austrians and the Serbians was very rough, as Serbia was then owned by the Austro-Hungarian empire, which caused civil unrest in Serbia. While Ferdinand was driving down the street to visit families who were victims of a horrible bombing that was actually an attempted assassination on Ferdinand himself, Gavrilo Princip, shot him and his wife. As a result, the Austro-Hungarian Empire devised a list of policies that really served to ruin the Serbian economy, as well as put Serbia in as unstable a condition as possible. Russia, who at the time was a very strong ally of Serbia, then mobilized its army because of Austria's then reaction to the assassination of Ferdinand. Germany then allies with the Austrio-Hungarian Empire, signified by the "blank check" Kaiser Wilhelm II gives to the Austrians, authorizing any decision the Austrians decide to make regarding the Balkan Crisis. Because France was allies with Russia at the time, and the Franco Prussian War destroyed the relations between France and Germany, Germany declared war on France, who immediately responded by forging an alliance with both Great Britain and Russia.

During the Jim Crow era, the lives of African Americans were severely restricted making it difficult for them to succeed in everyday life.  

After the Civil War, most Southern and Border States deprived the basic rights of African Americans. Jim Crow was a fictitious character created by a white entertainer to ridicule African Americans. The laws were made in an attempt to keep African Americans away from whites after slavery ended (“Examples of Jim Crow”). The Jim Crow laws affected education, health care, and social events. “From Delaware to California, and from North Dakota to Texas, many states (and cities, too) could impose legal punishments on people for consorting with members of another race” (“Jim Crow Laws”). These punishments could be brutal or sometimes fatal. Education was and still is a very important aspect in life, but Jim Crow laws made receiving an equal education an impossible task. “Education: The schools for white children and the schools for Negro children shall be conducted separately” Florida (“Jim Crow Laws”).
