NATIONAL POLICY OF AWARDING NATIONAL ORDERS

Awarding outstanding achievers is one of the cultural values that characterized many societies in the World from ancient period up today. In many ancient civilizations like the Greek and the Roman Civilizations, there were modalities of awarding outstanding achievers, especially in military matters. Outstanding achievers were awarded with Orders, Decorations and other forms of awards in recognition for their useful deeds. In most of the cases, different Orders were reserved to both civilians and soldiers, but at the beginning they were mostly reserved for the soldiers.
