Order of the White Eagle
The Order of the White Eagle (Polish Order Or?a Bia?ego) is Poland's highest decoration awarded to both civilians and the military for their merits. It was officially instituted on November 1, 1705 by August II, though it was probably created by Ladislaus I in 1325, for the wedding of his son, who would become Casimir the Great.
