Assistant Minister Zuo is equivalent to the current Deputy Minister of Defense.

In ancient times, senior officials equivalent to prime ministers were called "Situ", "Lingyin", "Shangqing", "Taiwei", "Left" and "Shi Yu". North Korean officials in charge of personnel power call it "zhongzheng"; The highest law enforcement official is called "Ting Wei".

Officials who hold the post of secretary or secretary-general are called "the secretary of the emperor" and "the long history"; North Korea's Ministry of Supervision officials called it the "four countries"; Officials in charge of foreign affairs call them "big banks" and "Daluhong"; The official in charge of ground affairs in Beijing is called "Neishi".

Officials who manage the power to participate in politics are called "big sinong" and "small government"; Officials in charge of military administrative affairs are called "military princes", military judges are called "military Sima", and officials in charge of military horses, food and grass are called "stable generals"

The official who specializes in patrolling the city to catch thieves is the "lieutenant". Of course, this is different from the "lieutenant" in the contemporary rank system; Officials who manage the development of animal husbandry in the country call it "taking land"; Local officials at or below the county level are called "Ling" or "Shilin".

In the Qing Dynasty, civil servants and military attaché s were divided into nine categories, and nine animal images were used in costumes to indicate the rank of official positions.

With the development of history, the position and name of official positions have changed significantly. But the organization of the whole country has maintained the old outline, but the organization is much more detailed and huge.
