I've come to believe that it was only a world war because of European colonialism; being truly the last civil war in a conflict that would dwarf Joe Haldeman's Forever War.
I've also come to believe that it killed European civilisation as it was known; it just hasn't died yet, and the 'great' powers are killing millions in their denial of their own deaths.
I'm afraid I didn't read very far into it. Those were two nice people Gavrilo Princip slaughtered, and even if they hadn't been, the assassination of an heir is hardly comparable to spilling a drink down one's pants.
