Count Karl von Stürgkh

Count Karl von Stürgkh (October 30, 1859, Graz – October 21, 1916) was an Austrian political figure during the late years of the Austria-Hungarian monarchy.

In 1891 he became a member of the Reichsrat, the Austrian parliament. From 1909 until 1911 he served as Minister of Education.

He served as Minister-President (Prime Minister) of Austria from 1911 and ruled the country autocratically during World War I, when the Reichsrat was not convened any more. He served as Prime Minister until he was assassinated (shot dead) by the socialist politician Friedrich Adler on October 21, 1916 in a Vienna restaurant.

Notes

Regarding personal names: Graf is a title, translated as Count, not a first or middle name. The female form is Gräfin.
