List of state representatives of the People's Republic of China
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The president of the People's Republic of China was created in 1954 when the first constitution consolidated the system of government in the People's Republic of China. At the time, the title was translated into English as State Chairman. The position was abolished between 1975 and 1982 with the functions of state representative being performed by the chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress. The presidency was revived under the fourth constitution in 1982.
Not to be confused with List of presidents of the Republic of China or List of premiers of the People's Republic of China.
All the names on this list follow the Eastern order convention (family name first, personal name second).
