Thanks guys!
Ok here's a complete list of ranks and titles which existed in Wallachia and Moldova. Many of these titles are of slavic etymology, with some latin, greek and turkish etymology. Several are original, such as armaş, paharnic, jitnicer and vistiernic. They are usually the same in both principalities but I have mentioned where there are slight differences. The offices were called "dregatorii" and were either public offices or court offices.
Public Offices (Dregatorii Publice)
Court Offices (Dregatorii de Curte)
- Ban - The title of medieval rulers of parts of Wallachia (Oltenia and Severin) since the 13th century. The Wallachian bans were military governers. Territory over which a ban ruled in Wallachia was called a banat
- Vornic - Intially was the main organiser of the voievod's court but gradually gained the most important judicial powers in both Wallachia and Moldova
- Logofat - the court's chancellor, supervised the making of laws and decrees, puts the seal on pricely documents. Gradually becomes the first office in the Sfatul Domnesc which is the Princely Council of the most important boyars
- Vistiernic - the treasurer, attended to finances and fiscal administration of the land, tax collection

- Portar - literally means gatekeeper, in Wallachia was the one who assigned land to boyars and received foreign diginitaries at court. In Moldova the foreing dignitaries are received by the Usar (doorkeeper). A more important office in Moldova was Portarul de Suceava (the gatekeeper of Suceava) who had military attributes and even became a member of the Princely Council
- Hatman - this office replaces the Portar in Moldova in the early XVIth century. The main attributes were military, gradually becoming the fourth most imporant office in the Princely Council
Various other (mostly boyar) titles:
