The Order of Norton is a dynastic order of knighthood established in 2021 by Emperor Oscar. It recognises distinguished personal service towards micronationalism as a whole.
The idea behind this order was to celebrate the life and achievements of Joshua Abraham Norton, the Emperor of the United States, one of the spiritual founders of American micronationalism. The order was to be awarded only on 08 January, at Emperor Norton Day.
The first time it was awarded was after the annexation of Occidia to Karnia-Ruthenia, and was the first signed that most of Occidian culture would be incorporated to Karno-Ruthenian society.
