It is the era in which the powerful minority in northern China, while the Han forces southward retreat of a special period. Therefore examine its central agencies Chiefs of racial makeup, it will help us to deepen the political history of Northern Wei, National History and Social Changes understanding.Firstly, we discussed and defined the scope of the North Wei central agencies system and its chiefs, with a column of 214 central agencies chiefs ethnic attributes. Thereafter, the central institution around ethnicity attributes, carried out on time and space analysis and found that with the change of the central region of the country, finished strong implementation of Han’s reforms, Xianbei military aristocracy and racial minorities in addition to Han and foreign fresh in central agencies the proportion of a downward trend, while the proportion of Han literati have greatly improved.

But with the advance of Han’s reforms, structural changes with completely move the capital to Luoyang, and it brings the central agencies chiefs on the ethnic composition of the above situation has undergone some new changes:Hu family strength in structural and personnel have the right to speak It has decreased, while the number of personnel and the right to speak the Han people has been enhanced accordingly. Of course, this Han strength development and expansion of spin momentum for the Six towns Xianbei broken, and the Hu strength in central agencies again occupy a dominant position.Factors historical tradition of Hu Han partition and XianHan mixed use, changes national center area, changes in the structure of central power and the influence of Hu and finished the fight, also have contributed to the evolving North Wei central agencies chiefs races, and this result has an impact on the dynamic evolution of the Northern Wei Dynasty subsequent political development is an important factor in, so as to investigate the Northern Wei Dynasty political development provides a new perspective.
