archduke

1 Austrian archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated in Sarajevo on 28 June, but the subsequent diplomatic discussions dragged out for weeks.

2 Pinto is close enough to see the archduke choke on his own blood.

3 Empress Elisabeth of Austria (Sisi) also visited Archduke in Mallorca.

奥地利女皇(茜茜公主)曾经也来到马略卡岛拜访这位大公。

4 Smiling expansively and nodding to the crowd, the archduke was riding in an open car through the streets of Sarajevo on the fateful Sunday morning of June 28, 1914.

5 “So you welcome your guests here with bombs?” the archduke remarked with some anger.

6 Perhaps, he warned, some young Serb participating in the Austrian manoeuvres might substitute live ammunition for blanks – and seize the opportunity to fire at the archduke.

7 A terrorist threw a hand grenade at the open car carrying the archduke and his wife, but the grenade only wounded members of the archduke’s entourage.

8 Shawcross deftly reexamines the tragicomic rule of the Austrian archduke Ferdinand Maximilian, the Habsburg prince whom France briefly imposed on Mexico in the 1860s.

9 It included the failed attempt to bomb Ferdinand’s car and also touched on the love story between the Austrian archduke and his wife, Sophie, Duchess of Hohenberg.

10 Nearly 500 years later, De Beers’ standard-bearing “A diamond is forever” campaign, conceived in 1947, turned the archduke’s romantic gesture into a cultural imperative.

11 The archduke was not particularly well- liked by his uncle.

12 One of the first recorded uses of a diamond engagement ring was Archduke Maximilian of Austria's proposal to Mary of Burgundy with a ring set with thin, flat pieces of diamonds in the shape of an "M."

关于钻戒使用的最早记录中有一条是奥地利大公马克西米利安向勃垦地的玛丽求婚时，赠与了一个M形又薄又平的钻石镶嵌的戒指。

13 The local Catholic archduke, steadfast in dogmatic certainty, vowed he would rather “make a desert of the country than rule over heretics.”

14 On the way to the hospital, the archduke’s driver took a wrong turn.

15 Earlier this week, one London-based fund described the Cyprus bailout as the euro zone's "Franz Ferdinand moment", comparing it to the assassination of an Austrian archduke in Sarajevo that sparked world war in 1914.

16 Vienna seized the opportunity presented by the assassination of the archduke to attempt to destroy its Balkan rival Serbia.

17 The assassin leapt into the river but was captured by police and the archduke’s cortege continued to Sarajevo’s town hall as planned.

18 For reasons both logistical and narrative, the First World War itself is given short shrift — the archduke was assassinated, everyone overreacted, and there we all were, dug into the mud of France.

19 That subject area has been largely worked over: the assassination of the Austro-Hungarian archduke in June 1914, the interlocking alliances and hatreds of the European powers, the horrors of trench warfare.

20 The archduke owned an impressive collection of arms and armor, which he displayed at his country residence, Konopiste Castle, near Prague.
