    During this time, the Balkan Region is controlled by the Austrian-Hungary Empire. Even though they were all under the control of Austria-Hungary, there were many different groups who wanted to develop their own nations free from Austria-Hungary's rule. Conflicts between Serbia and Austria-Hungary led to consist tensions between the two. Ultimately, the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand resulted in the "power keg" exploding, starting World War I.
