- He is one of the most important figures to had lived. Even though he seemed to have done little when he lived.
- He "advocated granting greater autonomy to ethnic groups within the Empire and addressing their grievances" and "also advocated a cautious approach towards Serbia". (Quoted straight from Wikipedia)
- Based on Wikipedia, he is a descendant of Francis I / Francis II.

If you follow those "long term effects" internet historians usually talk about, you can say that his death triggered WW1, which led to WW2, WW2 gave rise to the CWE, and the CWE led to today's problems. In this case, the guy was very important post-mortem. The rest is from Wikipedia and wherever the users pluck the information out of. |

Nobunaga Oda, slippery slope? nah but that can be justified to a certain extent, and his asassination can be linked to our present existence and environment.

Born in Vienna 1908, died in Madrid 1975.
An officer in the Waffen SS, he was awarded the Knights Cross with Oak Leaves and earned a reputation as "the most dangerous man in Europe".
After the war he was tried for war crimes at Dachau but was acquitted.
He escaped from an internment camp in 1947 and subsequently worked as an engineer in Spain, owned a farm in Ireland, was a military advisor to Nasser in Egypt - where he also gave commando training to Yasser Arafat, was a bodyguard for Eva Peron in Argentina, and (allegedly) also worked for the Mossad.

He's probably best known as the man who was personally chosen by Hitler to lead Operation Oak, a daring mission to rescue Mussolini after he was arrested in 1943. The mission was given an 85% chance of failure with expected casualties of 80% by the Germans, but Mussolini was liberated and 200 Caribinieri surrendered without a shot a being fired. |

Major Otto Harold mors? Tempted to give you that even though it's not the guy I meant, as after further checking my clue should probably have said the man who took/was given all the credit for Operation Oak! |
