Is this term not widely known?
remember learning this term as the cause of some wars you learn about in grade school
- tiborsaas 7y agoIt's not that widely known, but WW1 started with: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_Archduke_Franz_Ferdinand https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_Archduke_Fran...
- riffraff 7y agoIs this a joke? The assassination of archduke Franz Ferdinand was always the explanation for the start of WWI for me and everyone I've had the chance to speak, and there are at least two world wide known bands related to the event.
- feintruled 7y agoThe wars OP referred to are much older ones, e.g. : "The term was coined around the time of an incident in Prague Castle in the year 1618 which became the spark that started the Thirty Years' War."
- adamnemecek 7y agoIt didn't. It started Thirty Year War and Hussite Wars.
