On December 2, 1911, the joint meeting of representatives of provincial governors decided that Lei Fen, Ma Junwu and Wang Zhengting should draft the Outline of the Provisional Government of the Republic of China. On December 3rd, the Outline of the Provisional Government of the Republic of China was decided, and twenty-two representatives from Zhili, Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Anhui and Guangxi signed the Outline for confirmation. On December 14th, representatives from Fengtian, Shanxi, Jiangxi and Guangdong provinces signed for ratification.

The Outline of the Provisional Government of the Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as "the Outline of the Provisional Government") is a programmatic document on the preparation of the provisional government of the Republic of China, which was adopted by the representatives of the provincial capitals after the victory of the Revolution of 1911. Although it is a government organization law formulated by the Nanjing Provisional Government, it plays the role of an interim constitution, because it defines the basic political system of the Republic of China, imitates the political system of the United States, and implements the principle of separation of powers, so it can be said that the Outline of the Provisional Government Although its form is not very complete, it confirmed the * * * and the regime in the form of law for the first time, and declared the demise of the feudal autocracy, which was of progressive significance and became the basis for formulating the Provisional Constitution of the Republic of China in the future.
