The ancient county magistrate is equivalent to the present county magistrate. First of all, different times have different appellations. The county magistrate is the name of the county seat from the Qin Dynasty, while the county magistrate is the name from the Republic of China to the present. The county magistrate can be traced back to the Qin Dynasty. After Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, Shang Yang set up a county magistrate and promulgated a county magistrate system, which was implemented throughout the country, and the name of the county magistrate came from this and spread throughout the country. After the Han Dynasty, this system was followed and further improved.

Secondly, there are differences in power between ancient county magistrate and modern county magistrate. Both ancient county magistrate and modern county magistrate are the chief executive of a county. The difference between the two is that the county magistrate combines military power and judicial power; The right of the county magistrate is mainly embodied in the government system, and the army and the judiciary are not interfered by the government except the party Committee, which is the most essential difference between the two.

In addition, the functions of ancient county magistrate and modern county magistrate are different. The ancient county magistrate wanted to manage the county's public security, and was responsible for the public security, criminal proceedings and corvee collection in a county. Also responsible for the county's fiscal revenue, but also responsible for appeasing the people. There are only a few assistant officials, such as Xian Cheng, the main book and the county commandant, and a large number of officials who help him manage county affairs, and there are only a dozen or twenty chief officials.

In the decrees of the Qin Dynasty, every ten thousand people were county magistrates, and county magistrates were county magistrates. Xiancheng, equivalent to our deputy county magistrate today, assists the county magistrate in his work and needs the county magistrate to personally decide the case, so Xiancheng's rights are different from those of today's deputy county magistrate. Of course, if the background is reliable, the county magistrate will give me a little favor and even change it.

Hope to adopt me. Thank you~
