    The only way to really prevent World War II is to prevent World War I and to do that we would need to prevent the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and our own timeline made it pretty clear that he was destined to die that day.

      The assassination of Franz Ferdinand feels like there will be two competing organisations with access to time travel.
      One was trying to prevent the assassination while the other was making sure it happened.

        And here I immediately thought if one were trying to assassinate him, the other was trying to seduce him. Did you save him? Unfortunately no, he died of a heart attack. Apparently ED medicine had greater effects on people in that time period

        It’s just time travellers from original timeline that tried to prevent it, and time travellers from the fucked up resulting timeline that returned to fix everything back to at least what it was
