Amarillian Orders of merit

The Amarillian orders of merit are rewards given by the various Amarillian states to people considered to deserve being rewarded by the country for their acts.
== History ==
The first Amarillian orders of merit, the Republican orders for Civilian, Political and Military merit, were created by President Soronaca in August 2021. Quickly abandonned after the end of his presidency, they were still given to a few important people, including Salazar Van Den Green, only one to have received all three medals.
In 2022, when the Kingdom of Amarillo proclaimed its constitution, a new order of merit, the Amarillian Legion of Honour, was created. In the same period, the Order of the Civil War was created by Soronaca, as a reward for the most deserving members of the Imperilano-Republican faction.
After the end of the War of the Rising Tides and of Operation Salema, an other medal, the Medal of the Kelp War, was created, to be given to the most important participants of all the phases of the Kelp War, from its launch by the League of Vircon to the end of the rising sea levels in the Drakaen Sea.
After the Second Amarillian Civil war, Amarillo was divided into two. The Kingdom, seeing itself as the logical continuation of the previous Amarillian state, continued to distribute the Legion of Honour. The Republic on the other hand, chose to reactivate the old Republican orders of merit.
At the very end of Eldham, in late March 2024, the Consuls of the Republic, who also were the governors of the two provinces of the Kingdom, and the Queen of the Kingdom cooperated to give many medals to all those, dead or alive who, according to them, deserved medals they did not have yet. Except Lhytt Poliorcetes posthumously getting the medal of the Civil war, only the regular republican orders of merit and legions of honour were distributed.

The Amarillian government's list shows every people rewarded with Amarillian orders of merit. If marked with an A, it means they were rewarded in late march 2024, for the end of Eldham. If marked with x, it means they were rewarded before. The list tries to take into account the RP characters and not the OOC players, but may sometimes fail at doing it and/or at giving characters their proper name.
