Bandes d'ordonnance (French) or Benden van ordonnantie (Dutch) were elite heavy cavalry formations recruited from the aristocracy in the early-modern Low Countries. They were originally formed by Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, and became an integral part of the military organization of the Low Countries from the mid-fifteenth to late-sixteenth centuries, up to the first years of the Eighty Years' War. They continued to exist into the seventeenth century with far less military importance, although a command in a ''Bande d'ordonnance'' was still a considerable social distinction. ==References== *Baron (Henri-Louis-Gustave) Guillaume, ''Histoire des bandes d'ordonnance des Pays-Bas'', Brussels, 1873. *D.
