Unidentified planetary governor

An individual served as the planetary governor of the planet Dinwa Prime for the Galactic Empire during the Imperial Era. They were killed in 6 BBY, with Imperial officials claiming without evidence that the planetary governor's death was a result of "a rebel terrorist and traitor sponsored by the local community." A directive was made to use Dinwa Prime as a firing-range as punishment. Imperial Navy ships that passed along the Hydian Way hyperspace route often stopped at Dinwa Prime to test and synchronize their weapons or allow TIE pilots to practice bombing runs, which resulted in the planet being left in ruins over time. In 35 ABY, the historian Beaumont Kin mentioned the planetary governor in his book The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire.
