spawned WWII, when each of the warring nations virtually bankrupted themselves in order to avoid defeat and secure victory at all costs.</p />
<p>There is absolutely nothing that concentrates the minds of those in positions of authority so much as war. However, out of man’s eternal lust for power and continual warring comes a surprising by-product - advancements in the development of modern technology: air travel, space exploration, computers, the Internet … the list goes on and on.</p>
<p>All of these things may have been developed eventually, but certainly not at the same pace: and most can be traced right back to that one single event in Sarajevo ('ONE WRONG TURN'), thus creating the modern world in which we now live ('And the World Changed Forever').

the group finalises their plans to 'welcome' him. But their assassination attempts fail. Then Lubi comes face-to-face with her enemy counterpart – and neither lives to witness the final act.</p />
</p><p>After their failed attempts, the group is forced to give up, and Gavril - as the lookout - is left on his own. He gives up also. But, by the most unusual of circumstances, Gavril, the most unlikely member of the group, carries out the deed that precipitates World War I, followed by the most amazing chain of events in modern history.</p>
<p>…And the World Changed Forever</p>
<p>The assassination of the Archduke by 'Gavril' (Gavrilo Princip) caused mayhem in Europe – leading to the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian empire. But WWI very quickly

Gavril reluctantly agrees to join this group, but after months of inaction, the group becomes restless. Finally the chance comes for an intelligence-gathering mission right into the heart of enemy territory – into the capital itself! Two of the group are sent to Vienna and all seems to go well at first. But then disaster strikes when they encounter one of the empire’s secret agents and are forced to abandon the returning train whilst still deep in enemy territory.</p />
</p><p>A breathtaking rescue attempt is mounted to rescue them and bring back their precious, secret information about a planned royal visit to Sarajevo. With this, the group begins its planning in detail, but they have been tracked back to Sarajevo by the enemy’s agents.</p>
<p>The preparations are made for the fateful royal visit to Sarajevo – and

ONE WRONG TURN: …</p />
</p><p>Lubi and Gavril are Serbians living in Sarajevo, both united in their hatred of the evil Austro-Hungarian empire that rules Bosnia-Herzegovina in the early 1900s. Little did the quiet, unassuming Gavril know that Lubi had already been recruited into a secret society dedicated to the formation of a united Greater Serbia. In the three years of their existence they had made little progress, until Lubi convinces them they can achieve their aims with “just one bullet”.</p>
<p>Her daring plan involves recruiting a special group to carry out this most important mission - to assassinate the Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne. Lubi sets her sights on Gavril as the final member of her elite group of assassins: ‘Mlada Bosna’ (Young Bosnia).
