The Royal Order of the Knights of Stanislaus[1] or more formally, the Royal Order of the Knights of Saint Stanislaus, Bishop and Martyr[2], is the highest federal chivalric order of the Cheskgariyan-Litvanian Commonwealth[3]. Established on 4 March 2021 as the Order of the Crown of Cheskgariya and Litvania, the order is restricted to foreign royalty, heads of state, and nobility and shall only be conferred on the pleasure of the co-monarchs of the nation. It is limited to 3 inductions per year. The Order derives its name from Stanislaus of Szczepanów, a Polish Catholic bishop of the 12th century, who was killed by King Boleslaus II the Generous in a political feud.
