How did the death of Archduke Franz Ferdinand instigate (urge on) the collapse of peace in Europe?

It was a trigger that was competing two powers in Europe. Russia and Qustria-Hungary.Franz was killed by a separatist and the Austrians wanted to see the separatist punished for what he done, while on the other hand. Russia supported him.

The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand lead to a direct conflict between the two powers (Austria and Russia) and further lead to the war. Hope that helps.
