Yeah I've seen that, but its only a few offices with obviously roman names. I was more wondering if anyone had any knowledge beyond what can be found in a wikipedia article. I can use Google just fine.
If you want a more specific answer you're going to have to give a more specific query. "Can you give me some office titles from Europe and Rome for game because *vague reasons*" doesn't really give me anything to work with. What sort of offices? From what time period? In what sort of way? Remember that offices and office hierarchy seldom sprung, fully formed from day one (à la the US), but instead usually developed organically as the land and responsibilities of a ruler or ruling class expanded. For example: King has to formulate legal documents. King has lots of other responsibilities and doesn't have time to sit down and compose and sign off on all these documents. King creates the Office of the Chancery to do this for him, and delegates to the Lord Chancellor the legal power to bestow the great seal on documents, i.e. to authorize them in his name. Kings rarely cede or delegate power willingly. Usually there is some demand (time, distance, money) that requires them to cede authority.
