The Governor-General of Taiwan was the chief colonial official in [[Taiwan]], from [[1895]] through 1945. Japan's colonial administration of [[Colonial Korea|Korea]] was likewise headed by a [[Governor-General of Korea]]. The title might be more literally translated as "general director."
While the position was in theory opened up to civilian appointees in both Korea and Taiwan after 1919, it was only in Taiwan that any civilians were appointed; in Korea, military men dominated the position throughout the colonial period.<ref>[[Mark Peattie]] and Ramon Myers (eds.), ''The Japanese Colonial Empire, 1895-1945'', Princeton University Press (1984), 26.</ref>
