Sudanese state decoration
This article is about a Sudanese Order. For an Egyptian Order, see
Order of the Nile .
The Order of the Two Niles (Arabic : وسام النيلين , romanized : Wisām an-Nīlayni ) is a state decoration of Sudan established on 16 November 1961 during Ibrahim Abboud 's military government .[ 1] The Order of the Two Niles – White and Blue Niles – is Sudan's second-highest honour after the Order of the Republic . The order is given to Sudanese and foreigners, civilians and military, who provided great services to the state.[ 2] The order has five classes.[ 3] [ 4]
The star, sash, and badge make up the First Class insignia. The star has ten points and is covered in gold. A ten-ended star is created by superimposing two five-pointed stars with truncated rays on top of one another. The surfaces of the stars are covered with vertical and, consequently, horizontal rays. The star consists of four layers and is particularly huge (102 mm) and heavy (8 1⁄2 ozs ). A 40 mm white medallion sits in the middle with the inscription in dark blue: "El Nilein Arabic : النيلين ", or "The Two Niles" in Arabic calligraphy . The gold medallion is attached to the ribbon by means of a transition element in the form of a rhinoceros pendant. Rhinoceros was the Republic of Sudan emblem until it became the Democratic Republic of Sudan and changed the emblem in 1985 to a secretarybird .[ 5] The ribbon is Royal blue moiré with two 5 mm white stripes toward each edge and is 51 mm wide. The badge is of the same pattern but smaller, measuring 58 mm across.[ 6]
Class II consists of the star and a neck badge, Class III consists of a neck badge, and Class IV and V consist of chest badges.[ 7] The insignia is made by Garrard & Co (London, England), Eng Leong Medallic Industries and Bichay (Cairo, Egypt).[ 4]
Class I: Grand Cordon [ edit ]
Class II: Grand Officer [ edit ]
