During the Clone Wars, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine appointed Governor-Generals to each sector within the Republic, to help direct Republic's campaign against the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The Governor-Generals improved the effectiveness of the contribution of the Planetary Security Forces to the Republic's war effort and during the latter stages of the conflict, the Governor-General system gave rise to class of regional governors.
