The teenager who changed world history

A. Franz Ferdinand was the direct cause of the First World War, which started the same year, and which resulted in the deaths of nine million soldiers. The war ended in 1918 with the Treaty of Versailles, which was very unfavourable to Germany. This, in turn, resulted in Germany going to war again in 1939, a war in which approximately 60,000,000 people around the world lost their lives.
B. For example, do you know who Gavrilo Princip was? Probably not. He was a Serb, born in Bosnia in 1894 and was one of nine children, six of whom died when they were very young. Gavrilo's health was also very bad and he suffered from tuberculosis. He studied in Belgrade where he spent most of his time with nationalists who wanted a union between Bosnia-Herzegovina and Serbia. He died when he was just 24 years old.
C. The Second World War ended with the Treaty of Yalta in 1945 which led to the division of Eastern Europe, which eventually led to the conflict in Yugoslavia in the 1990s. Possibly no other person has had so much impact on world history over the last century than the sickly teenager, Gavrilo Princip.
D. History tells us about famous leaders, Kings and Queens, but what about the great changes which have been caused by one small act carried out by a relatively unknown person?
E. So why is he so important? Well, Gavrilo Princip is the boy who, at the age of 19, assassinated Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in 1914. Franz Ferdinand was going to be the next Austro-Hungarian emperor and the nationalists wanted their country to be independent from the empire. After shooting and killing the Archduke in his car, Gavrilo was captured by the police and sentenced to 20 years imprisonment. But he died in prison of tuberculosis in 1918.

Studying abroad is a really good experience. However, sometimes it is very difficult to get
necessary funds to pay for tuition, living accommodations, etc. One way to get money while
studying is to apply for a job. If you would like to study and work at the same time in Great Britain,
you should be aware of some pertinent rules and regulations.
A lot of students dream of obtaining a degree from an overseas university and, in particular,
of one from Great Britain. This country, famous for its traditions and unique education system,
seems an optional location. Moreover, it is possible to study there for free! In this article you will
find out how to obtain financial assistance such as grants and scholarships to pay for tuition and
living expenses in Great Britain.
Getting financial assistance necessarily involves an assessment of your academic progress,
educational background and work experience. However, it is also a matter of time. As a rule,
students must start preparing the necessary documents at least a year before their intended study.
This time is spent filling out the applications, sending them to the appropriate bodies, having them
assessed and, finally, receiving the results. Most financial assistance programmes have deadlines, so
the earlier you start the better.
Financial assistance programmes come in two broad categories. The first covers full funding
for tuition fees, accommodation, and maintenance; while the second covers only partial expenses
associate with education and living. The latter category mostly consists of individual universities'
grants and scholarships, so it is best to consult each university regarding their own financial
assistance programmes.
To cross the border you'd need a foreign passport, which may be acquired upon making a
personal petition (or through legal representatives) to the passport service of the internal security
bodies, in residence. (A person receiving a passport is not to be younger than eighteen, or sixteen if
the person lives abroad permanently).
The process of getting funds for education takes time, so you will need to be patient. Good
luck!
