Orders of Chivalry
An Order of Chivalry or an equestrian order is an order of knights usually founded during or inspired by the original Catholic Military Orders of the Crusades (circa 1099-1291), paired with medieval concepts of chivalric ideals.
These orders often maintained the notion of being a confraternity, society or other association of members, yet some of them were ultimately purely honorific, consisting of a medal decoration. In fact, these decorations themselves often came to be known informally as orders. These institutions, in turn, gave rise to the modern orders of merit of sovereign states.
