Most likely done before, but what if the Archduke and his wife had bulletproof vests on and escaped death? No WW1?WW1 delayed a few years?
 
I doubt the Great war would go as it did for the obvious POD this is, but there would still exist the rise of the German Empire to prominence, and British and French fears about Germany becoming the power of the continent, so a Great war or at least a war between east and west in a limited way may be likely.
