Had Franz Ferdinand not gotten assassinated and none of the other crises which occurred during this time escalated into a general European war, what would a surviving Austria-Hungary led by Franz Ferdinand have looked like?

Specifically, what would its economy, society, and military have looked like as the years and decades progressed?

Also, I am assuming that Franz Ferdinand would have had to deal with a short civil war as a result of a Hungarian rebellion in 1917 in this TL. However, if/after this revolt is crushed, what exactly does Franz Ferdinand do next?

Any thoughts on all of this?
