Are there any other examples of overlordship in SF? Defined as
humankind placed under involuntary governance by either

Probably 100s I would expect.
Some that leap immediately to mind:
"Nightwings" by Silverberg
_Pandoras Planet_ by Anvil
Duchy of Terra setting by Stewart
_This Immortal_ by Zelazny
_Way of the Pilgrim_ by Dickson
_Divide & Rule_ by de Camp
_Earth Lies Sleeping_ by
_Sleeping Planet_ by Burkett
