As the Archduke's car approached the third assassin after the others failed to act, the bomb bounced off the Archduke's car and exploded the car behind him, injuring 16-20 people. Later, as the Archduke's car turned a wrong corner, assassin [[Gavrilo Princip]] shot dead the Archduke and his wife in their car. This resulted in the [[July Crisis]], and [[World War I]].

|The [[1966 anti-Igbo pogrom]] was a series of massacres committed against [[Igbo people|Igbos]] and other people of southern Nigerian origin living in northern Nigeria starting in May 1966 and reaching a peak after 29 September 1966. Between 8,000 and 30,000 Igbos and easterners have been estimated to have been killed. A further 1 million Igbos fled the Northern Region into the East. These events led to the secession of the eastern Nigerian region and the declaration of the [[Republic of Biafra]], which ultimately led to the [[Nigerian Civil War|Nigeria-Biafra war]].
