The 1700s saw a variety of governors across different regions, particularly in colonial America. Notable figures included William Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania; Benjamin Franklin, who served as the colonial governor of Pennsylvania; and George Clinton, who became the governor of New York in the later part of the century. Each of these governors played significant roles in their colonies' governance and the lead-up to the American Revolution.
