Pendleton act 1883 was rolled out as demand for civil service reform giving permanent federal employment based on merit rather than political power and influence. The rule led to open selection of government employee giving more right to citizen but still only 10% people were employed through this new rule which later increased to 90% in 1980s.

These people were then employed not based on political influence were then being promoted on merit system like examination both internal and external. Giving opportunity more loyal and liberal public opinion , qualification based selection.

During war time most male citizens are employed (If the waring country uses conscription) which lowers the national unemployment rate. Factories for non essential items will start to switch into making products for war use which makes businesses boom and grows the national economy. Also employment rates rise again due to the factory workforce hiring women and men who cant fight in war to work in the factories. War-bonds fund the government aswell, because citizens buy them in a way to "loan" their government to support the war effort which raises their military budget. The development of new technologies can also lead to economical prosperity.

A great example of this is the United States during the Great Depression when unemployment rates were at a all time high. Once Japan declared war on the United States, unemployment rates were back to normal due to conscription being implemented for male citizens. The females also worked in the factories creating munitions and arms for the war effort.
