Orders, Decorations and Medals of the Pyrusian Empire

The Imperial Pyrusian honours system is a means of rewarding individuals' personal bravery, achievement, or service to the Pyrusian Empire. The system consists of three types of award: honours, decorations and medals:
* Honours (in the form of Orders) are used to recognise merit in terms of achievement and service.
* Decorations tend to be used to recognise specific deeds.
* Medals are used to recognise bravery, long and/or valuable service and/or good conduct.
