There had been political murders at all times and there will be, following our assumptions, assassinations in future times, too. One reason for this surely is that political murders can be committed relatively easy. As the presentation of the diverse murdering methods shows, the culprits rarely depend on high-tech devices which has the consequence that merely a bit of ability and the needed scruple last out for an assassination. Even if the most assassinations on these internet pages date of the 19^th and 20^th century, one cannot derive a rise of murders at these times. This disproportionate can be traced back to the beginning of the industrial and information society which provides more knowledge about political murders. None the less, a development can be recognized which lasts up to today. The first known murders date back to the 14^th century BC. In European post-war history, the murders committed by terror groups and underground movements became a decisive influencing factor.
