南京考试院是应孙中山先生的“五权”(立法、行政、司法、考试、监察)理论而建立起来的。孙中山在辛亥革命胜利后就任中华民国临时大总统后,立即着手政府体系的建设,先后就考试院的建立出台了一系列的法规文件。但随着袁世凯当上大总统,考试院并没有实际成立,直到1927年4月南京国 The Nanjing Examination Center was set up under the “Five Power” (Legislative, Administrative, Judicial, Examination and Supervision) theory of Dr. Sun Yat-sen. Sun Yat-sen immediately assumed the presidency of the ROC after the victory of the Revolution of 1911 and immediately started the construction of the government system. He successively issued a series of laws and regulations on the establishment of the exam center. However, with Yuan Shikai being the president, the examination room was not actually established until April 1927 in Nanjing
