Governor Clarence Whitman was the Planetary Governor of New Home, for the Republic of the Sphere, from at least 3130 to 3132.[1][2][3]

History[edit]

Following the Blackout when New Home's HPG station ceased operation, and the resulting reduction in Republic oversight, some of the world's population considered Whitman's rule devolved into a grab for more land, resources and power. While he retained the support of the powerful local noble family House Cavalqueros, and a large part of the planetary militia, he did face a rebellion lead by Zander Shienzè of House Shienzè in circa 3132.[3][4]
