Cabildo of San Juan Tenochtitlan - Governor

Governor

Initially the governorship was given to the tlatoani (indigenous dynastic ruler), and the first four governors were thus referred to as cacique y gobernador ("Indian ruler and governor") or señor y gobernador ("lord and governor"). Subsequent, non-dynastic governors were referred to juez-gobernador ("judge-governor") or simply gobernador ("governor").

In 1564, the governor received a salary of 400 pesos per year.

Famous quotes containing the word governor:

    “It is better to have the power of self-protection than to depend on any man, whether he be the Governor in his chair of State, or the hunted outlaw wandering through the night, hungry and cold and with murder in his heart.”
    —Lillie Devereux Blake (1835–1913)

    “I saw the man my friend ... wants pardoned, Thomas Flinton. He is a bright, good-looking fellow.... Of his innocence all are confident. The governor strikes me as a man seeking popularity, who lacks the independence and manhood to do right at the risk of losing popularity. Afraid of what will be said. He is prejudiced against the Irish and Democrats.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “Three years ago, also, when the Sims tragedy was acted, I said to myself, There is such an officer, if not such a man, as the Governor of Massachusetts,—what has he been about the last fortnight? Has he had as much as he could do to keep on the fence during this moral earthquake?... He could at least have resigned himself into fame.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
