The Order of Liberty, or Freedom, ((ポルトガル語:Ordem da Liberdade)) is a Portuguese honorific civil order that distinguishes relevant services to the cause of democracy and freedom, in the defense of the values of civilization and human dignity. The order was created in 1976, after the Carnation Revolution of 1974 in which the quasi-fascist authoritarian ''Estado Novo'' regime of António de Oliveira Salazar and Marcello Caetano was deposed . The Grand Collar can also be given by the President of Portugal to former Heads of State and others whose deeds are of an extraordinary nature and particular relevance to Portugal, to making them worthy of such distinction. == Grades == The order includes five classes; in decreasing order of seniority, these are: * 80px Grand Collar (''Grande Colar'' - GColL) * 80px Grand Cross (''Grã-Cruz'' - GCL) * 80px Grand Officer (''Grande-Oficial'' - GOL) * 80px Commander (''Comendador'' - ComL) * 80px Officer (''Oficial'' - OL) * 80px Knight / Dame (''Cavaleiro'' / ''Dama'' - CavL / DamL) Like the other Portuguese orders, the title of Honorary Member (''Membro Honorário''—MHL) can be awarded to institutions and locals. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Order of Liberty」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
