Decorations of the Victorian Independent State

The Victorian Independent State had a number of decorations, with several established under the order of General before the organization came to power in. These pre-revolution decorations were supplemented after 2537 with a number established by bills of the Independent State, mainly in order to recognize those that had performed remarkably during the coup, and in later fighting against pro- insurgents. Outside of the official decorations, most VIS-aligned militia units also had their own decorations, which were sometimes awarded to Victorian Independent Military troops as well in recognition of an operation they had performed in support of the militia or in protection of the operating area of the group.

Very few, if any, decorations of the VIS had an accompanying medal, with most denoted by a small rectangular ribbon worn on the awardee's uniform's left breast in a similar manner to the UNSC's method of display. Those medals that were struck were generally those awarded for exceptional acts of valor. One such medal, a Cross of Independence awarded to Nathaniel Wright in, was sold at auction in for almost 3,000.
