You can't compare these two situations at all. Princip was not the head of a country.

Everything is contextual. Hell the plan the assassins had was exactly to provoke a war. They might not have thought it would get as big as it did, they just wanted a civil war for independence, but if intentions don't matter, and they must not for this discussion because the intention of The Great Leap Forward wasn't to starve people.

The funny thing with The Black Hand's plan is, it worked. Serbia didn't just get independence, it became the primary power of Yugoslavia when the Austro-Hungarian Empire was dissolved.
