Yeah,

and stop Franz Ferdinand being assassinated?


That's a very good suggestion as well.
Personally, I'd go forward in time - probably by a couple of centuries or so - simply to see how mankind has advanced/destroyed itself/suffered armageddon.

Simple, really - the Franz Ferdinand that we're referring to was "Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria". Basic summary of the man:

"Franz Ferdinand, Archduke of Austria-Este (December 18, 1863 – June 28, 1914) was an Archduke of Austria, Prince Imperial of Austria, Prince Royal of Hungary and Bohemia, and from 1896 until his death, heir presumptive to the Austro-Hungarian throne. His assassination in Sarajevo precipitated the Austrian declaration of war which triggered World War I."

Hope that helps. :)

To be more precise, it was his assassin - Gavrilo Princip, a member of Young Bosnia and one of several (seven) assassins organized by The Black Hand (Crna Ruka) - who really started World War I.

Well, he was - to some degree.
To be specific, he was a Bosnian Serb.
