It was a imperial examination in Song Dynasty (later on), but in Han Confucianism was hella on, so u need dat knowledge to be in gov. A lot of goverment after Qin Dynasty (previous dynasty) was adopted. So the Emperor had all the power, and all the "jobs" cam down on familly line. So pretty much be wealthy, know confucianism, and have a father who was in the gov, or if the emporer chose u, and u must have a d!(k. Okey, just googled in wiki to be sure and it's says "the states made by the emperor were assigned to official dedication..." So I guess emperor chose the gov, but all of them had to be educated. Sooo if that helps, hard question though.
When Americans think of African-Americans in the DEEP SOUTH before the Civil War, the first image that invariably comes to mind is one of slavery. However, many African-Americans were able to secure their freedom and live in a state of semi-freedom even before slavery was abolished by war. FREE BLACKS lived in all parts of the United States, but the majority lived amid slavery in the American South. According to the 1860 U.S. Census, there were 250,787 free blacks living in the South in contrast to 225,961 free blacks living everywhere else in the country including the Midwest and the Far West; however, not everyone, particularly free blacks, were captured by census takers. In the upper south, the largest population of free blacks were in Maryland and Virginia; in the mid-Atlantic, the largest population of free blacks was in Philadelphia.
The answer is false. Hope this helps!
