The Order of Merit ((スペイン語:Orden del Mérito)) is a Chilean military order and was created in 1929. Succeeding the Medal of the Merit, it was created during the term of the President Germán Riesco through the Minister of War decree No. 1350 on September 4, 1906. This new national distinction was created to recognise the meritorious service provided by foreign military personnel to Chilean officials. The first 200 military medals were minted in gold and silver, giving them the title of ''First'' and ''Second Class''. They were minted at the Casa de la Moneda, having a tricolor ribbon. The order had three classes: ''First Class'', ''Second Class'', and ''Third Class''; but later a new class was added (''Grand Officer'') that would be awarded to heads of state. In 1925, all the classes were renamed to: *100px Collar of the Grand Cross ((スペイン語:Collar de la Gran Cruz)) *100px Grand Cross ((スペイン語:Gran Cruz)) *100px Grand Officer ((スペイン語:Gran Oficial)) *100px Commander ((スペイン語:Comendador)) *100px Officer ((スペイン語:Oficial)) *100px Knight ((スペイン語:Caballero)) The order is only awarded to foreigners. ==External links== * (Condecoraciones ), Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores de Chile. es:Órdenes, condecoraciones y medallas de Chile#Orden al Mérito de Chile 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 Merit (Chile)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
