!!!Manöver

Manoeuvres, realistic military exercises with two parties of different 
size operating in accordance with a scenario. Unlike manoeuvres in the 
18th century, which were similar to military parades, the manoeuvres 
of the Austrian army in Italy under Radetzky served to prepare the 
troops for action. Up to the beginning of the First World War 
manoeuvres in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy were solemn occasions 
("Imperial Manoeuvres" if in the emperor's presence) on a grand scale. 
In the Second Republic, the Federal Army holds major exercises almost 
every year.
