The '''Noble Order of the Sword''' is one of the four original [[Westarctica|Westarctican]] [[Orders of Westarctica|Orders of Chivalry]]. It was created to recognize exceptional military achievement. As Westarctica is largely a peaceful nation, it remains an honor that is rarely awarded.
The '''Noble Order of the Sword''' is one of the four original [[Westarctica|Westarctican]] [[Orders of Westarctica|Orders of Chivalry]]. It was created to recognize exceptional military achievement. As Westarctica is largely a peaceful nation, it remains an honor that is rarely awarded. Members of the order are entitled to use the postnominal "KNS" after their name.

After 13 years of being an underutilized honor, the Order's function was deemed non-essential due to Westarctica's commitment to peace and ability to cover the rare need to recognize military achievement with the [[Order of the Snowflake]]. However, after participating in [[Exercise: Westarctic Chill]] with the [[Slabovia]]n military, [[Grand Duke Travis]] decided to revive the Order and return it to active use.
