The Colonial Order of the Star of Italy (Italian: Ordine coloniale della Stella d'Italia Template:IPA-lt) was founded as a colonial order of chivalry on 18 June 1914 by Italian King Victor Emmanuel III, to reward soldiers deployed to the colony of Libya. The order had fallen into abeyance by 1943, when Allied forces conquered the colonies of Italian North Africa.[1]
The various degrees of the order, with limits to their number, were as follows:
Ribbon | Class (English) | Full title in Italian | Limit |
---|---|---|---|
80px | 1st Class / Knight Grand Cross | Cavaliere di Gran Croce dell'Ordine coloniale della Stella d'Italia | 4 |
80px | 2nd Class / Grand Officer | Grande Ufficiale dell'Ordine coloniale della Stella d'Italia | 7 |
80px | 3rd Class / Commander | Commendatore dell'Ordine coloniale della Stella d'Italia | 20 |
80px | 4th Class / Officer | Ufficiale dell'Ordine coloniale della Stella d'Italia | 50 |
