On June 22nd, China Revolutionary Party held its first congress in Tokyo, and Sun Yat-sen was elected as Prime Minister. In the history of the Republic of China, Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the forerunner of the great democratic revolution, enjoyed two exclusive honorifics for his outstanding contribution to the democratic revolution in China: one was "Premier" and the other was "Father of the Nation".

Sun Yat-sen was the supreme leader of the Kuomintang from the date of its establishment (1894) to the death of Sun Yat-sen (1925). During his lifetime, he served as the Prime Minister of the Communist Party, the Prime Minister of the League, the Chairman of the Kuomintang, the Prime Minister of the Revolutionary Party of China, and the Prime Minister of the Chinese Nationalist Party. 12 March 1925 After Sun Yat-sen's tragic death in Beijing, the Kuomintang of China held the third plenary session of the first Central Committee of the Kuomintang in Guangzhou from May to August/25 of the same year. The Declaration on Accepting the Will of the Prime Minister, which was published at the 24th meeting, not only expressed "complete acceptance" of Sun Yat-sen's previous wills, but also clearly defined the future organizational system of the Kuomintang "except that all party member formally voted for the election, thus confirming Sun Yat-sen's position as the" Prime Minister ". After that, the Kuomintang did not stipulate the party leader and his name from the organizational system for a long time. It was not until the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression that, in order to adapt to the special wartime environment,1the temporary national congress of the Kuomintang held in Wuhan in March 1938 decided to implement the leadership system and named it "President", whose duty was only to "act as prime minister".
