  • The Order of Saint Lazarus was one of if not the coolest order. They were the least corrupt and most devout.
  • There is 1 missing from the list: Which is the Cruciferi Sancti Stephani Regis (Order of Hospitaller Canons Regular of St Stephen) or Stephanites being named after the 1st king of Hungary St. Stephen,it was a religious institution set up by King Géza II of Hungary (1141–1162). The order was organized around a hospital that the king had earlier established in Esztergom (at that time an important station on the inland pilgrim route to the Holy Land) in honor of King St Stephen I of Hungary. They also administered a hospital at Budafelhévíz. They even did take part in the 5th Crusade led by their King, András II of Hungary, members of the Order also took part in the Battle of Muhi in 1241 just as the Teutons did.

    Europe turned the backs to their soldiers, but not here 🇵🇹. Here you will always be one of use and united once again for what is coming next.

    The order of Santiago didn't allow their members to marry, but allowed already married couples to join the order. They would remain celibate after joining.

    A small mention to the missing minor germanic Order of the Dragon. They did the same as the teutonics in the north but in the east, but marauding magyars, tartars and turkic raiders proved more than the tribes of Livonia. The order was given holdings in Wallachia (southwest of the mentioned teutons in Transylvania) and most notably Vlad the Impaler's dad became an order knight. Hence why in folklore drachen -> draculea -> draculesti or simply drac is a reference to 'devil' as teutonic knights were upstanding chaps :face-blue-smiling:

    Funny thing is the Hospitalliers who are basically a country without land; but they do have embassies, passports and such
