The Provincial Governors were the third department set up by the New Pacific Order, following the formation of the Senate and what would later be known as the Praetorian Guard. Francos Spain announced their formation on February 22, 2004.[1]. As initially founded, there were 26 Provinces set up, one for each letter. The role of a Governor was to take an active role with their nations: telegramming nations, inviting them to join the forum, encouraging non-UN nations to join, and encouraging existing UN nations to endorse the government. Current and future Senators became Governors in the early days of the New Pacific Order, including Mussolandia, Poskrebyshev, Sir Paul, Ivan Moldavi, and Warrior Thorin.
The Provinces continued through the People's Republic of the Pacific era, with Warrior Thorin serving as Senator of Administration, overseeing the Provinces. In this era, there were four Provinces: #-D (also responsible for Finance), E-L (also responsible for the People's Militia), M-R (also responsible for Gaming and Roleplay), and S-Z (also responsible for Culture); Governors included Krulltopia and Haor Chaol.[2][3]
In January 2008, the Provincial Governors were restored by Moo Cows with Guns.[4] At this time, their role was to represent nations in the region based, not alphabetically, but on length of time in the region. The Provinces and Governors disappeared sometime shortly thereafter. Discussion arose in January 2012 about restoring the Governors and Provinces, but they were not reinstated.[5]
In August 2015, the Provincial Governors were reinstated.[6] The Governors were responsible for recruitment, Praetorian Guard and Military, governmental roles, diplomatic, media, and organization of a government within their Provinces. This set of Governors had six appointees, including notably Pergamon.[7]. The Provinces were consolidated in around February or March 2017.[8]
In September 2019, the Imperial Governors were reinstated and revamped, with rules in administration, media, culture, mentoring, Praetorian Guard, Diplomatic Corps, and Legio Pacifica.[9]. The position of Governor was eliminated and renamed to Exarch on February 29, 2020.[10]
