Difference between revisions of "Orders of Westarctica"

Westarctica currently has an order of chivalry and an order of merit considered to be "in disuse." These orders are no longer being awarded, their function having been deemed obsolete with the introduction of the Honored Westarctican Awards in 2018. Though no longer awarded, these orders have not been abolished, meaning that their members may still wear their regalia as they would an active order. They will remain in disuse until such time as the Grand Duke decides to abolish or revive them; barring either of those occurring, the orders will become dormant once there are no living members. The 02 April 2005 ''Royal Decree Revising the Orders of Westarctica'' establishes the protocol of each order such as the size of the order, the use of post-nominal letters and insignia design and display.
