Imagine that, on june 28, 1914, as gavrilo princip was about to shoot archduke ferdinand, his gun jammed, and the archduke survived. would world war i still have occurred?

answer this question by taking a position and provide at least one piece of evidence to back up your claim.

No, i don't think it would happen

Austria and Serbia has been involved in several conflict even before the world war 1. They involved in economic conflicts in early 1900s that make the tension between the two countries became quite high, but they still do not have any proper reason to initiate war with one another.

The assassination of Archduke Ferdinand became a perfect trigger for the people who want the war to break out. It became really easy for them to gained support from the citizens to initiate an attack toward Serbia, which lead to the world war 1.
