1 answer
The best response to investigate the reason the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand sparked World War I is:
the collapse of the alliance system
This option is most relevant because the assassination set off a chain reaction due to the existing alliance obligations between countries, ultimately leading to the outbreak of the war. The other options, while interesting, do not directly address the immediate causes related to the alliances that defined the pre-war climate.
