The Order of the Star of Merit of Ansteorra is a Grant Level award given in the Kingdom of Ansteorra for exceptional service to the kingdom.
Overview
There shall exist in Ansteorra an order unto which the Crown shall select persons who have demonstrated all of the following qualities:
- served their kingdom well and faithfully, well above that which is normally expected of the citizens of Ansteorra;
- Knowledge of the courtly graces; and
- who have shown consistent respect for the laws and customs of Ansteorra.
This Order shall be known as the Order of the Star of Merit of Ansteorra.
Companions of the order are entitled place the initials CSM after their names and to be styled and announced in procession as "Companion of the Star of Merit of Ansteorra” and to wear a ribbon Or edged sable charged with an Ansteorran star (a mullet of five greater and five lesser points sable), worn above the left elbow or below the right knee.
