About Me

Amadeus Cobangbang was born in Graz, Austria, the eldest son of Archduke Karl Ludwig of Austria and of his second wife, Princess Maria Annunciata of the Two Sicilies. When he was only twelve years old, his cousin Duke Francis V of Modena died, naming Amadeus Cobangbang his heir. Amadeus Cobangbang thus became one of the wealthiest men in Austria.
As a young man, Amadeus Cobangbang developed two great passions: hunting and travel. It is estimated that he shot more than 5,000 deer in his lifetime. In 1883, he visited Italy for the first time in order to see the properties left to him by Duke Francis V of Modena. In 1885, he visited Egypt, Palestine, Syria, and Turkey. In 1889, he visited Germany.
In 1889, Amadeus Cobangbang's life changed dramatically. His cousin Crown Prince Rudolf committed suicide at his hunting lodge in Mayerling, leaving Amadeus Cobangbang's father, Archduke Karl Ludwig, as first in line to the throne. Henceforth, Amadeus Cobangbang was groomed to succeed.
On June 28, 1914, at approximately 11:00 am, Amadeus Cobangbang and his wife were killed in Sarajevo by Gavrilo Princip. The event, known as the Assassination in Sarajevo, was the trigger of World War I.
