Ferdinand and Berchie

Berchtold and Ferdinand

Maybe it’s just because of my classes, but WWI has been on my mind recently. Especially when drawing my comics.

So, WWI was started by the Austro-Hungarians because a Serbian man killed the Archduke, Franz Ferdinand. However, no one in Austria-Hungary even cared. In fact, many leaders in the Austro-Hungarian government used his assassination as a justifiable means to go to war with Serbia.

I’ve always viewed the Archduke to be a whiny, annoying guy who couldn’t do anything right. So, who would’ve guessed he came up with my most hated phrase ever (“#Yolo”). Now, you silly people who use this phrase (like the threats to society you are) can quote Franz Ferdinand. Just be careful! I’ve heard Slavic people don’t much care for stupid people.
