The Royal Union of Kouralia has an extensive system of honours and awards, both military and civil, which are used by the state to recognise deeds by its citizens. The Crown, and therefore the wearer of it, is the font of honour, and is thus ostensibly the figure responsible for determining if a particular award should be made. However, in practice this authority is usually delegated. For example, most military medals are issued on the recommendation of a commissioned officer, with that recommendation confirmed by a more senior officer. Many of these awards, particularly the superior ones, come with titles and/or post-nominals. There are three main categories of award:

  • An Order is usually the highest award for lifetime or extended actions and service. They are not issued for bravery/gallantry, and unlike medals are not issued for fulfillment of particular conditions - though they may be associated with such by custom.
  • A Decoration is an award for a particular action such as an instance of bravery or the like, whether civil or military in nature. The highest decorations rank before any other honour. It may contain the word 'Medal' in its title, but the majority are referred to as 'Stars' or 'Shields' to distinguish from the final caterogy of honour.
  • A Medal is an award for some form of service milestone. It may be for length of service, for serving in a particular campaign, for marksmanship, or for meritorious conduct. They almost universally do not confer post-nominals.

Also considered to be a class of Honour are the so-called Payras, or 'Peers of the Realm.' This encompasses a number of members of the nobility, along with the so-called Lesser-Kings. The Payras are specifically nobles who sit on the Noble Assembly, and as a group does not include Nobles who do not sit. The Payras include a number of different styles, in different grades of nobility:

  • Lesser Kings: The Lesser Kings, or Lagra-Cynegas of Kouralia are the third rank of monarch in Kouralia. Unlike the Monarch of Kouralia, and the titles of Monarch of Altonia, Monarch of Chieti, and Monarch of Kurton which are also held by the Monarch of Kouralia, the Lesser Kings are accolades given to the recipients of particular awards. They have no legal power or authority, and the title is not inheritable. A Lesser Kingship is not in fact a Peerage, however it is custom to award the recipient a Life Peerage alongside it.
  • Life Peers: Life Peers are traditionally afforded the grade of Viscount, except for those who subsequently take on offices within the Noble Assembly, who are then raised to Counts. The Peerage of a Life Peer is to ensure the Noble Assembly has sufficient expertise to act as a revising legislative chamber, thus they are traditionally given to those who are renowned experts in their field, such as captains of industry, renowned scientists and the like. The title of a Life Peer is not inheritable.
  • Hereditary Peers: There has not been a creation of a hereditary peerage outside the royal family since the Kouralian Revolution in 1963. However, members of the Royal Family may be given such a title, and surviving members of previous noble families have reclaimes their titles. Those rendered extinct have since fallen into abeyance. A hereditary Peerage is one of any grade which may be inherited by the eldest child of the current holder.

Procedure

Order of Wear

There is a common order of wear which is prescribed across all uniformed services, the intelligence service, police services, and civilians. It follows the following general principles:

  • The XYZ and the ABC, the highest awards for bravery issued by the Royal Union.
  • Orders of the Royal Union, going in order of precedence by order and by grade - for example, any banneretcies would be worn in order, followed by any knighthoods, followed by any Esquiredoms, followed by any Serjeancies.
  • Decorations of the Royal Union.
  • Medals of the Royal Union to commemorate distinguished service.
  • Operational Service Medals, in order of date of award.
  • Kouralian Jubilee and Coronation Medals
  • Kouralian Long Service and Efficiency Medals
  • The above general principles, but applied to foreign orders, decorations, and medals unless authorised for wear otherwise than behind all Kouralian awards.

Manner of Wear

There are a number of parts to the honours which are visibly displayed on the recipient to indicate their receipt of the honour. They are generally worn in one of three grades: Ceremonial, Dress, and Un-Dress.

  • Ceremonial-wear is the full set of awards. This will include the seniormost order's chain or collar (and crown or sash, if there is one), and up to four Phalerae for the four seniormost orders that the bearer is a member of. There will then be the full set of medals worn across the chest in order of precedence.
  • Dress-wear may include the collar of the seniormost order if prescribed by that order, otherwise it will simply be the full bar of medals on the chest.
  • Un-Dress-wear consists of the medal ribbons, but not the full medals and ribbons as in the above forms.

The collar is a ribbon worn around the neck of a dress uniform, usually between the dress shirt and the dress tunic, and the appendant medal then hangs over the tie as worn. The sash is worn from the left shoulder across the chest and down to the right hip, then up the back again. The Phalerae for the senior-most orders are worn on the left side of the torso below the medal bars in ascending order of seniority. The medals are worn on the left breast in order of seniority, from left to right. If sufficient medals are worn, then a second bar is worn under the first. Chains are only worn by certain chivalric orders, and consist of a number of links interspersed with decorative imagery, and there is an ornate medal appendant suspended from it. Certain awards merit a Crown and these are referred to as the 'Lesser Kings' or Lagra-Cynegas of Kouralia, however while referred to as a king or queen they do not have any legal authority or political or statutory power.

Foreign Recipients

Decorations and medals can be worn by any foreign recipient who is so authorised with no restriction bar those imposed by their own country. Payras are unable to be awarded to anyone bar a Kouralian citizen, and if a hereditary noble title which was classed as a Peer of the Realm was inherited by a foreign citizen, the peerage would automatically be revoked. Orders are slightly restricted to foreign citizens using the following general principles:

  • A Knighthood or Banneretcy can only be awarded to a citizen, thus a foreigner is either a 'Stranger Knight' or possesses an Honorary Knighthood. These entitle the bearer to use postnominals, and add the order's signs to their coat of arms however they are not entitled to the style 'Sir' or to the wear of a surcoat. Stranger Knights only apply to the Order of the Citadel.
  • Orders which are issued on the recommendation of the government for service to the government may not be issued to a foreigner. This applies to the Order of Justiciars, of the War God, and of the Military Stuffs.
  • Finally, the Orders which are given by the monarch personally, may be issued to any foreigner - the customary rules and the first rule not withstanding. This applies to the Orders of the Citadel, Emerald, and of Royal Service.

Orders

Complete Name Ranks/Post-Nominals Ribbon Notes
Order of Justiciars Capoðaine aþe’Gyustycyaras (GC)
Gyustycyaræ-in-Ordinary (GO)
Gyustycyaræ aþe’Cynyng (GY)
Lay-Gyustycyaræ (GL)
File:Kour CO Order of Justiciar.png The Onstæl aþe’Gyustycyaras (Order of Justiciars) is the foremost order of Kouralian chivalry, uniquely calling upon its members to defend the Kouralian concepts of Justice and Honour (and ensuring their continuation in Kouralia) rather than defending the nation, crown, lord or populace. The three ranks are specifically delineated according to role, and there is little to no transitioning between the three. The Captain of Justiciars is a single individual and nominally the head of the Order, living in the First Hall of Justice. In modern times this position is always held concurrently with the First Ministership.

A Justiciar-in-Ordinary is one of the 12 senior-most Judges in Kouralia, who sit in the Supreme Court. The Royal Justiciars of State are the cabinet members, but return their Knighthood on removal from the position. A Lay-Justiciar is a knight of the order aside from these other accolades, usually members of the royal family, and potentially other notaries including all previous Captains of the Justiciars. There are few who are made Lay-Justiciars.
Order of the Citadel Knight (KC) / Lady (LC) File:Kour CO Order of Citadel.png The Order of the Citadel is a Kouralian chivalric order issued in relation to both Kouralia in general and the area of Kouralia formerly belonging to the Altonian Empire. Originally the foremost order of chivalry in the Altonian Empire, it was superseded by the Onstæl aþe’Gyustycyaras when Kouralia conquered that state in the early 19th century. The Order is limited to 'Royal Knights' (members of the Royal Family of Kouralia), 'Stranger Knights' (members of foreign monarchs), and 'Knights of the Citadel' (a maximum of 25 individuals appointed to that rank). There are no honorary members (i.e. foreign citizens) in this order bar the Stranger Knights, thus all knights and ladies of the order are entitled to the honorific 'Sir' or 'Lady'.
Order of the Emerald Hall Knight (KS) / Lady (LS) File:Kour CO Order of Emerald Hall.png The Onstæl Saragdynæ (Emerald Order) is a Kouralian chivalric order issued in relation to both Kouralia in general and the area of Kouralia formerly sovereign as the Demæn Duchyssymes aþ’Chieti. Originally the foremost order of chivalry in the Grand Dukedom of Chieti, it was superseded by the Onstæl aþe’Gyustycyaras when Kouralia conquered that state in the late 18th century. The order is limited to 'Royal Knights' (members of the Royal Family of Kouralia), 'Emerald Knights' (a maximum of 49 individuals appointed to that rank), and any number of 'Honorary Knights'. A Honorary Knight is a foreign citizen who has been appointed to the order, but who cannot be a knight due to not being a Kouralian citizen. Thus they are addressed as 'Mr/Ms/etc. XX, of the Emerald Order' rather than 'Sir/Lady XX, of the Emerald Order', though they may use the post-nominals.
Legatorial Order Companion (CWS) File:Kour CO Order of Command.png The Legatorial Order is unique among the Orders of Kouralia in that it cannot convey a knighthood. It is issued to officers, usually of the rank of Major or higher, for distinguished leadership and command by officers in combat. It may be issued to an officer below the rank of Major, however this is highly unlikely unless said officer is discharging duties commensurate with the rank of Major or higher (i.e. command of a Company-sized force). While it cannot convey a knighthood and therefore the medal and ribbon will always sit behind that of knighthoods and squires, the orders presence before the Carnelian Waters in precedence means that the collar of the Winged Star takes precedence over the Collar of the Carnelian Waters.
Order of the Carnelian Waters Banneret (BCW)
Knight (KCW)
Scƿyr (SCW)
File:Kour CO Order of Carnelian Waters.png
File:Kour CO Order of Carnelian Waters (Military).png
The Onstæl Areanes (Order of the Carnelian Waters) is a Kouralian chivalric order issued in relation to Kouralia for service in either the Civil or Military divisions. Members appointed to the Civil Division are usually senior civil servants, crown servants or diplomats and must "by their personal services to the crown or by the performance of public duties have merited royal favour." Members appointed to the Military Division must be of a senior rank, and are usually knighted for lengthy service of note.
Order of Honour's Companions Banneret (BA)
Knight (KA)
Scƿyr (SA)
Companion (CA)
File:Kour CO Order of Honour's Companions.png The Onstæl aþ’Aran Æfenletyas (Order of Honour's Companions) is a Kouralian chivalric order rewarding service in a wide range of useful activities such as the arts, sciences, industry, technology, and others. The term 'Æfenletye' (pl: Æfenletyas) translates literally as a non-gendered romantic or sexual companion (specifically one who is not a husband/wife), analogous to 'lover', 'mistress' or any of a number of like terms.
Order of the Burning Grail Banneret (BB)
Knight (KB)
Scƿyr (SB)
Companion (CB)
File:Kour CO Order of the Burning Grail.png
Knights Bachelor Knight Bachelor (Kt) File:Kour CO Knight Bachelor.png The Knights Bachelor do not belong to any Chivalric order, and thus rank below even the lowest non-knighted rank of the Order of Honour's Companions, however they are entitled to the honorific 'Sir'. Knight Bachelor is a gender-neutral honour, and any female Knight Bachelor is entitled to use that honorific. It is generally awarded for public service, and may be issued to one who has already received a non-knightly Companionship of Honour but who has given further contribution to society without meriting advancement in the order.

Decorations

Complete Name Ranks/Post-Nominals Ribbon Notes
Grade 1
Honour's Shield Awardee (HS) File:Kour G1 Honour's Shield.png Honour's shield is Kouralia's foremost award for bravery, described as requiring "...most conspicuous bravery, or some daring or pre-eminent act of valour or self-sacrifice, or extreme devotion to duty in the presence of the enemy." There have been two awards, not including the Demon War, since the restitution of the monarchy to Kouralia. As with all 'Shield' medals, not only is the medal itself shaped like a shield rather than a simple disc, but it confers a symbol which can be added to one's heraldry, should one posses a coat of arms.
Valour's Shield Awardee (VS) File:Kour G1 Valour's Shield.png Valour's Shield is the highest honour for bravery that a civilian can receive in Kouralia. It is awarded for "... acts of the greatest heroism or of the most conspicuous courage in circumstances of extreme danger," and thus does not require the acts in question to be carried out in the face of the enemy to receive it.
Grade 2
Royal Martial Shield Awardee (RMS) File:Kour G2 Martial Shield.png The RMS is a tri-service award, issued for "...an act or acts of conspicuous valour during active operations against the enemy."
Royal Paean Shield Awardee (RPS) File:Kour G2 Paean Shield.png The Paean Shield is granted for "...Conspicuous devotion to the Hippocratic Oath and Paean Principles in the face of the enemy", and is traditionally issued to medical personnel who go above and beyond the call of duty when tending to injured servicepersons.
Cold Iron Shield Awardee File:Kour G2 Cold Iron Shield Class One.png

File:Kour G2 Cold Iron Shield.png
The Cold Iron Shield unique in that, as its name implies, it is struck from iron rather than a more precious metal. It is issued in recognition of the subject "being wounded or killed in any action or as a result of an act of any enemy of the Royal Union or opposing armed forces." When issued in the Class One, it is for death in action. When issued in Class Two it is for actual or grievous wounding in action.
Grade 3
Valorous Irregulars' Shield Awardee File:Kour G3 Valorous Irregulars Shield (Army).png
File:Kour G3 Valorous Irregulars Shield (Navy).png
File:Kour G3 Valorous Irregulars Shield (AF).png
The VMS is issued for "... gallantry during irregular active operations against the enemy." It comes in three ribbon-variants, one for each service branch. It is most commonly issued to members of STRIKE Command such as special forces or commandos, and the ribbon indicates the original service the serviceperson is from (i.e. even if serving currently in the Swimmer-Cannoeist Regiment, a former Air Force Auxiliary Airtrooper will receive the Air Force Blue award). It does not require one to be formally mentioned in despatches, and while a report would be submitted, it would not be gazetted.
Valorous Military Shield Awardee (VMS) File:Kour G3 Valorous Military Shield.png The VMS is issued for "...exemplary valour during active operations against the enemy." It is not restricted to Army personnel however, and can be received by any Air Force or Naval personnel who are engaged in ground combat operations.
Valorous Naval Shield Awardee (VNS) File:Kour G3 Valorous Naval Shield.png The VNS is issued for "...exemplary valour during active operations against the enemy at sea." While it is not restricted to Naval personnel, it would traditionally be rare for Army personnel to receive it, though Fleet Air Arm personnel of the Air Force are more likely
Valorous Flying Shield Awardee (VFS) File:Kour G3 Valorous Flying Shield.png The VFS is issued for "...exemplary valour during active operations against the enemy in the air." Like the above two awards it is not restricted to Air Force personnel, however opportunities to win it could be limited.
Valorous Intelligence Shield Awardee File:Kour G3 Valorous Intelligence Shield.png The VIS is issued for "...exemplary valour by Intelligence Service Personnel who are acting in an operational capacity." This award is available only for non-Military Intelligence personnel, or for personnel embedded in an Intelligence Operation.
Valour's Medal Awardee (VM) File:Kour G3 Valour's Medal.png Valour's Medal is issued to military personnel and civilians for "... acts of great bravery" not in the face of the enemy which do not otherwise merit receipt of Valour's Shield.
Grade 4
Kouralian Gallantry Medal Awardee File:Kour G4 Kouralian Gallantry Medal.png The Kouralian Gallantry Medal is issued to military personnel and civilians for "…exemplary acts of bravery" not in the face of the enemy which do not otherwise merit receipt of the Valour's Shield or Valour's Medal.
Maritime Gallantry Medal Awardee File:Kour G4 Maritime Gallantry Medal.png The MGM is issued, primarily to merchant marine or naval personnel for "...the saving of life at sea with exceptional humanity or gallantry."
Flying Gallantry Medal Awardee File:Kour G4 Flying Gallantry Medal.png The FGM is issued to air force (or, potentially, other servicepersons) for "...an act or acts of valour, courage or devotion to duty whilst flying, though not in active operations against the enemy."
Medal of the Burning Grail Awardee File:Kour G4 Shield of the Burning Grail.png The Medal of the Burning Grail is issued for personal services to the sovereign or royal family.
Grade 5
Mentioned in Despatches To be mentioned in despatches (MiD) means that a serviceperson has been named in an official report by a superior officer which was sent to a higher command, describing their brave or meritorious conduct in the face of the enemy. It is a pre-requisite for receiving any of the medals which require valorous action in the face of the enemy, however being MiD does not automatically result in a medal, as it is up to the higher command to determine if any further decoration is suitable. Being MiD does however confer a certificate, the despatch being published in the Kurton Royal Gazette, and a single gold oak leaf decoration which is either pinned to the ribbon of the appropriate campaign medal or to the left breast of the wearer's dress tunic where no medal is issued.
Commendation for Valour To be Commended for Valour (CfV) means that a serviceperson or civilian has been named in an official report by an officer of the Crown which was sent to a higher command, describing their brave acts. It is a pre-requisite for receiving any other medals, however being commended for valour does not automatically result in a medal, as it is up to the higher command to determine if any further decoration is suitable. Being commended for valour does however confer a certificate, the despatch being published in the Kurton Royal Gazette, and a single silver oak leaf decoration which is either pinned to the ribbon of the appropriate campaign medal or to the left breast of the wearer's dress tunic where no medal is issued.

However, those who fought for the Government did not receive the Medal of the Burning Grail additionally.
