People's Republic of China

From 1978 onwards, the Commander-in-Chief was the Chairman of the Central Military Commission (CMC), the body which has overall command authority over the Armed Forces of China. The modern established practice is that a single "paramount leader" holds the following three offices, General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, President of the People's Republic of China, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, simultaneously to signify a single supreme executive authority over the party, state and the military.
