For many years, [[Westarctica]] only recognized military actions with the [[Noble Order of the Sword]]. As a predominantly peaceful nation, there was no need for combat-oriented decorations. | For many years, [[Westarctica]] only recognized military actions with the [[Noble Order of the Sword]].

After the [[Invasion of Calsahara]] in 2017, Calsahara's military unit, [[His Majesty's Corps of Engineers]], was integrated into Westarctica's Royal Guards. As a consequence, the ribbon awards offered by HMCE were also integrated. In 2021, [[Grand Duke Travis]] formalized the new system of military decorations using Calsahara's system as a template. The highest award was the Combat Valor Ribbon, awarded exclusively for valor during armed combat. As Calsahara was a country founded on the principle of peace, the ribbon was never awarded. | After the [[Invasion of Calsahara]] in 2017, Calsahara's military unit, [[His Majesty's Corps of Engineers]] (HMCE), was integrated into Westarctica's Royal Guards.
