The Sri Lankan national honours system is a fully indigenous honours system of titles, decorations and medals which are awarded to recognize achievements of, or service by, Sri Lankans or others in connection with Sri Lanka.
 Until 1972, the British honours system was in place in Ceylon along with several indigenous titles (which were not awarded since 1948), however since 1956 no nominations were made for these honors and were automatically discontinued after Sri Lanka became a republic.
 Since 1981 a uniquely Sri Lankan system of National Honours have been introduced.
 These awards are titles that can be used by the recipients.
The Victoria Cross (VC) is the highest award of the United Kingdom honours system.
 It is awarded for gallantry "in the face of the enemy" to members of the British armed forces.

 It may be awarded to a person of any military rank in any service and to civilians under military command although no civilian has received the award since 1879.
 Since the first awards were presented by Queen Victoria in 1857, two thirds of all awards have been personally presented by the British monarch.

 Today, the Victoria Cross (French: "Croix de Victoria" ), created in 1993 and named in honour of the British Victoria Cross is the highest award within the Canadian honours system, taking precedence over all other orders, decorations, and medals.
 It is awarded by either the Canadian monarch or his or her viceregal representative, the Governor General of Canada, to any member of the Canadian Forces or allies serving under or with Canadian military command for extraordinary valour and devotion to duty while facing hostile forces.
 Whereas in many other Commonwealth countries the relevant version of the Victoria Cross can only be awarded for actions against the enemy in a wartime setting, the Canadian government has a broader definition of the term "enemy", and so the Victoria Cross can be awarded for action against armed mutineers, pirates, or other such hostile forces without war being officially declared.
 Recipients are entitled to use the post-nominal letters "VC" (for both English and French) and also to receive an annuity of C$3,000.
 The decoration has not been awarded since its inception.
