    History


    The Bene Merenti Order of the Ruling House was established by King Carol II in 1935. It was conferred upon Romanian civilians and military personnel in recognition of service to the crown. It could also be awarded with swords from 1937-1940. It was officially replaced by the Order of St. George in 1940.

    The II Class Cross (for Men) was worn on a neck ribbon and the II Class Cross (for Women) was worn on a bow.
