Chapter 10, Beautiful Misunderstanding

```

On December 12, 1848, a civil service exam with far-reaching influence on Austria began registration, signifying a fundamental change in how Austria selected its talent.

Although this exam was still an internal competition among the nobility, having competition was better than having none at all.

Here, the declining nobility had the opportunity to return to the center of power, and the Austrian Government regained their support.

Government agencies, state-owned enterprises, teachers, and a series of other positions, combined, provided nearly 130,000 job opportunities for society, attracting over 186,000 applicants.

If this competition ratio was put into later times, many people would probably be overjoyed, but in this era, many still complained about the pressure.
