On the Concepts of 'Sovereign' and 'Great' Orders
ON THE CONCEPTS OF ‘SOVEREIGN’ AND ‘GREAT’ ORDERS Antti Matikkala The only contemporary order of knighthood to include the word ‘sovereign’ in its name is the Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of St John of Jerusalem of Rhodes and Malta. Sovereignty is here heraldically exemplified by the Grand Master’s use of the closed crown. Its Constitutional Charter and Code explains that the order ‘be- came sovereign on the islands of Rhodes and later of Malta’, and makes the follow- ing statement about its sovereignty: ‘The Order is a subject of international law and exercises sovereign functions.’1 However, the topic of this article is not what current scholarship designates as military-religious orders of knighthood, or simply military orders, but monarchical orders. To quote John Anstis, Garter King of Arms,2 a monarchical order can be defined in the following terms: a Brotherhood, Fellowship, or Association of a certain Number of actual Knights; sub- jected under a Sovereign, or Great Master, united by particular Laws and Statutes, peculiar to that Society, not only distinguished by particular Habits, Ensigns, Badges or Symbols, which usually give Denomination to that Order; but having a Power, as Vacancies happen in their College, successively, of nominating, or electing proper Per- sons to succeed, with Authority to assemble, and hold Chapters. The very concept of sovereignty is ambiguous. A recent collection of essays has sought to ‘dispel the illusion that there is a single agreed-upon concept of sovereignty for which one could offer of a clear definition’.3 To complicate the issue further, historical and theoretical discussions on sovereignty, including those relating to the Order of Malta, concentrate mostly on its relation to the modern concept of state, leaving the supposed sovereignty of some of the monarchical orders of knighthood an unexplored territory.

1 the Most Honourable Order of the Bath Gcb / Kcb / Cb X
THE MOST HONOURABLE ORDER OF THE BATH GCB / KCB / CB X - CB - 2020 PAGES: 59 UPDATED: 01 September 2020 Prepared by: Surgeon Captain John Blatherwick, CM, CStJ, OBC, CD, BSc, MD, FRCP(C), LLD (Hon) ===================================================================================================================== ===================================================================================================================== 1 THE MOST HONOURABLE ORDER OF THE BATH (GCB / KCB / CB) When the Most Illustrious Order of St. Patrick, National Order for Ireland was phased out with the death of the Duke of Gloucester in 1974, the Order of the Bath became the third highest Order of Chivalry. Merit and Service were to be the conditions for admission to this Order as opposed to most admissions to the Garter and Thistle being because of birth and nobility. The Order was founded in 1399 and probably took its name from the preparations for the knighthood ceremony where new knights would purify their inner souls by fasting, vigils and prayer, and then cleansing their body by immersing themselves in a bath. The Order was revived in 1725 as a military order with one class of Knights (K.B.). In 1815, the Order was enlarged to three classes: Knights Grand Cross (GCB) Knights Commander (KCB) Companions (CB) There was a civil division of the Knights Grand Cross while all others were to be military officers. In 1847, a civil division for all three classes was established with numbers set as follows: GCB 95 total 68 military 27 civil KCB 285 total 173 military 112 civil CB 1,498 total 943 military 555 civil The motto of the order is " Tria Juncta in Uno " (Three joined in one) which either refers to the three golden crowns within a golden circle worn on the badge, or the three crowns as symbolic of the Union of England, France and Scotland, or the Union of England, Scotland and Ireland or the Holy Trinity.

The Order of the British Empire
The Order of The British Empire PETER GALLOWAY THE ORDER OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE In 1993 the Officials of the Order of the British Empire decided to commission a history of the Order. The result was The Order of the British Empire, by Peter Galloway, published in 1996 to coincide with a Service of the Order in St Paul’s Cathedral on 8 May 1996. It was a pioneering study of the debates that led to the institution of the Order, and the controversies that occurred in its earliest years. This new and greatly expanded edition, also commissioned by the Officials of the Order, published in 2017 to mark the centenary of this most well-known national honour, incorporates the inevitable changes and developments that have occurred since 1996, not least the revival of the use of the British Empire Medal. This second edition provides much new material from the archives of the Central Chancery of the Orders of Knighthood, the Royal Archives, the National Archives and the Cabinet Office Honours and Appointments Secretariat. In the early 1990s, the world-wide web was still in its relative infancy. Since that time, the increasing availability of on-line archival material has enabled almost immediate access to an immense universe of knowledge, including many illustrations otherwise difficult to locate. The British Newspaper Archive in particular, a valuable on-line tool for research, has enabled this new history of the Order to include diverse public reactions from sources once difficult to access and usually unindexed.
