Maurice, Prince of Orange
Maurice is traditionally depicted in full armor, in Italy emblazoned with a red cross. In folk culture he has become connected with the legend of the [[Holy Lance]], which he is supposed to have carried into battle; his name is engraved on the [[Holy Lance]] of [[Vienna]], one of several relics claimed as the spear that pierced [[Jesus]]' side on the cross. Saint Maurice gives his name to the town [[St. Moritz]] as well as to numerous places called [[Saint-Maurice (disambiguation)|Saint-Maurice]] in French speaking countries. The [[Indian Ocean]] island state of [[Mauritius]] was named after [[Maurice, Prince of Orange]], and not directly after Maurice himself.
