The Most Noble Order of the Rose is an order of chivalry founded by King Vrandys III of Aquitayne in 1381. It is the most senior order of knighthood in the Aquitaynian honors system, outranked in precedence only by the Elizabeth Cross. The Order of the Rose is dedicated to the symbol of the Reich family dynasty, the white Tudor rose.

Appointments to the Order are made at the sovereign's sole discretion. Membership to the order is limited to the Sovereign, the Duchess of Acril, and no more than 20 living members, or Companions. The order also allows for supernumerary knights and ladies (e.g members of the royal family and foreign royals).

The order's emblem is the white Tudor rose, with the motto Non Ducor Duco ("I am not led; I lead") in gold lettering. Members of the order wear it on ceremonial occasions.
