On June 28, 1914, Sophie and Ferdinand were assassinated by Gavrilo Princip, which would inadvertently cause a world war.
This important event became a "fixed point" in time, and Eobard Thawne was tasked with protecting it. The event attracted many time travelers who would travel to this point in time to try to stop the assassination.[1]
The Legends traveled to 1914 to stop the assassination in an attempt to lure Evil Gideon and the Robot Legends there and steal their Waverider in order to return home. Thawne allowed a forty-minute delay of the assassination to let this happen.[1] Princip later managed to accomplish the assassination after the forty minutes.[2]
