Traditional Chinese Historiography styles include.

The main types of traditional Chinese history books are: chronicle style, chronicle style, chronicle style, and country style.

Ji biography: The ji biography style of history was founded in the Western Han Dynasty by Sima Qian's "Historical Records", which centered on biographies of people, and used "Benci" to recount emperors; "Shijia" to recount princes, vassals, feudal lords, and special characters; and "Table" to unify the chronology, lineage, and history of people. The "Table" was used to collect the chronology, lineage and characters; the "Book" or "Zhi" was used to record the rules and regulations; and the "Lianzhuan" was used to record the characters, nationalities and foreign countries. The revision of history through the ages has taken this as a model. Another example is the Book of Han. There are some individual histories that do not have a book or journal, such as the Records of the Three Kingdoms

Chronology: Chronicles are written in the order of years, months, and days, with years and months as the warp and facts as the woof, which makes it easier to reflect the connection of various historical events in the same period. The way of recording history in the form of chronicles first originated in China. For example, Zuo Zhuan and Ziji Tongjian belong to this category. The Spring and Autumn Annals is one of the earliest surviving chronicles in China.
