Caelan MacRory (August 14, 1900 - August 13, 1971) was a the 6th Ceannaire of Gjorka from 1959 to 1971 during the Second Gjorkan Republic. MacRory's tenure as Ceannaire is considered one of repression. He backpedaled on many of the reforms implemented by his predecessor, Eli Mannion, instituted a national draft to help fight the resistance against his regime, and re-authorized the use of deadly force for police officers. His reign as Ceannaire is seen as the biggest contributor to anti-regime sentiment that ultimately led to the Black Revolution.
