Best Answer

If you're talking about Austria-Hungary and the one whose death started World War I, that would be Archduke Franz Ferdinand. During World War II, considering that it started in 1939, Austria was already a part of Nazi Germany, making Hitler the leader of Austria (and all other German countries excluding Switzerland and Liechtenstein). Not sure who was in charge of Hungary during this time...
