The whole country was divided into 36 counties, and later it increased to more than 40 counties. The royal family appoints and dismisses the main officials of counties, which are completely controlled by the central government and the emperor and are local administrative units under the central government. Centralization was established from then on. In the twenty-eighth year of Qin Shihuang (2 19 BC), the inscription on Yishan said: "Remember the troubled times, divide the country into the Republic of China and strive for each other"; "This is the royal family, a world, and soldiers will no longer rise." This shows that Qin Shihuang thought it necessary to cancel the enfeoffment system of counties and counties in order to eliminate military struggles in various places. County is a local administrative unit under the central government, and its organizational structure is similar to that of the central government, with a county magistrate, a county magistrate and a county supervisor (supervising the imperial history). As the chief executive of a county, the county magistrate is in charge of the county government affairs and is directly controlled by the central government; County commandant, assisting the county magistrate, is in charge of the county's military; County supervisor, in charge of supervision.

There are counties or roads below the county level. County is a key first-level organization in the ruling institutions of the Qin Dynasty, and it is a relatively independent unit from the central to local government institutions. There are counties in the mainland and roads in ethnic minority areas in the border areas. More than 10,000 counties have county orders, and less than 10,000 counties have county heads. Make and long for the length of a county, in charge of the county's government affairs, controlled by the county magistrate. The county magistrate is composed of Wei Hecheng. Commandant, in charge of the county's military and public security; County magistrate or assistant county magistrate Cheng is in charge of the county's justice. County officials are appointed and removed by the central government.

There are townships, villages and pavilions below the county level. Villages and townships are administrative organizations, and kiosks are public security organizations. There are three old people, a miser and a swimmer in the country. Three elders are in charge of education, misers are in charge of litigation and taxation, and vagrants are in charge of public security. Below the township, it is the most basic administrative unit of Qin State. Or Li Dian was located in Li, later known as "Hao Shuai" as the power minister. Its functions are basically the same as those of the township government, and it also has the task of organizing production. In addition, there is a special public security organization that prohibits thieves, called Pavilion, Chang. Qin stipulated that the two pavilions were ten miles apart, and each pavilion had its own pavilion. Pavilions and pavilions are all over urban and rural areas.

The political system of the centralized state founded by the Qin Dynasty will only be mended in the later history of China society, and its basic framework will not change.
