Hardy and Cornel:

So sad. Poor Franz-Josef. What an unfortunate existence for that
benevolent ruler so beloved by his people. In that case,, why did his son
kill himself and why was Franz Josef's wife slain?
Incidentally, was the emperor's appointed heir Ferdinand the same archduke
Ferdinand whose assassination -- according to. historians -- triggered
World War I ?
Thanks.
