"Serbia vowed to take back the annexed territory from Austria-Hungary."
Explanation: The 1908 annexation angered Serbian nationalists because Bosnia and Herzegovina had a large Serb population and was seen as part of a future Greater Serbia. Serbia refused to accept the annexation, sought support (especially from Russia), and the dispute deepened Austro‑Serbian hostility and diplomatic tensions that helped set the stage for the later crises leading to World War I.
