About corregidor

A corregidor was a local administrative and judicial official in the Spanish Empire. Corregidors were the representatives of the royal jurisdiction over a town and its district. The name comes from the Spanish word corregir, meaning "to correct". Monarchs used corregidors to strengthen royal authority in their colonies or districts, and because of the ties to the crown they were often seen as oppressive.
