The Military Order of Alexandra (Dutch: Militaire Alexandras-Orde) is the highest military honour of the Atmoran Confederation. The order was founded by Alexandra the Great after the Battle of Pirna to be presented for feats of excellent bravery on the battlefield and as a meritorious decoration to senior military officers and other ranks. Currently, the order is awarded to members of the Commonwealth; Atmora, Mizuho and Ghelen along with foreign nationals. All recipients of the order are granted the style as The Honourable Sir/Lady (De Hoogedelgestrenge heer/vrouwe).
