Not sure what you mean. Considering that it kicked off the July Crisis and directly led to Austria-Hungary declaring war on Serbia and thereby starting WWI, I would say it was a pretty big deal. Now, if you are saying that many people were indifferent, that may be true, but news media is news media, today or 100 years ago. The Heir to the Austro-Hungarian Empire being gunned down is a big deal no matter what.

Would you guys want a Siam or an Ottoman Empire?

Due to RL problems, I must withdraw as the Ottomans.

Since the other guy just withdrew as the Ottomans, I think the Ottoman Empire is much more important in the whole scheme than super far away Siam.

To say no one cared isn't exactly accurate, there wasn't an immediate war or anything, it took a month for relations to deteriorate. People didn't overall think it would lead to a war. Honestly the war very nearly didn't happen

Im assuming that since this is alt history, I can make a more rash decision

you can, im just saying you don't actually have a casus belli until the demands get refused, you have no reason to think the Serb gov is in on it
