-The '''[[Order of the Desert Heart]]''', originally called the Royal Order of the Desert Heart, is the highest order among the [[Orders of Calsahara]] created by [[Grand Duke Travis|King Montague]] on 20 November 2009. It was created by the King as a way to recognize service and friendship to [[Colony of Calsahara|Calsahara]].
+The '''[[Bear Peninsula]]''' (74°35′S 111°00′W) is a peninsula about 80&nbsp;km (50&nbsp;mi) long and 40&nbsp;km (25&nbsp;mi) wide which is [[ice]] covered except for several isolated rock bluffs and outcrops along its margins, lying 48&nbsp;km 30&nbsp;mi) east of [[Martin Peninsula]] on the [[Walgreen Coast]] of [[Westarctica]].
-As the Overlord of Calsahara, [[Grand Duke Travis]] is the current font of honor for the order, although previously, it could be awarded by either [[Prince Daniel Nicholas|King Nicholas]] or the Dictator for Life.  The regalia for the order is a silver and turquoise heart suspended from a red and green ribbon. Turquoise is a common semi-precious stone found desert areas in the North American southwest and the red and green ribbon contain the colors of the original flag of [[Colony of Calsahara|Calsahara]].
+The peninsula was first delineated from aerial photographs taken by [[U.S. Navy]] Operation Highjump in January 1947, and was named after the ice-ship USS ''Bear'', flagship of the U.S. [[Antarctica|Antarctic]] Service, from which three reconnaissance flights were made in late February 1940, resulting in the discovery of the [[Walgreen Coast]] (with probable sighting of this feature) and the [[Thurston Island]] area.
-The first recipient of the order was [[King Christopher of Vikesland]] ''(pictured)''.
+This ship, under the name ''Bear of Oakland'', also served as flagship of Admiral [[Richard E. Byrd]] from 1933-35.
