Star of Knights and Ladies Companion of the Order of the Palm

The Most Illustrious Order of the Palm is the highest honour awarded at the sole disposition of the Government of Ibagli. It is traditionally reserved for Governors-General, Prime Ministers, Speakers of the House of Commons, and certain other eminent and important Ibaglians.

There may only be 30 living Knights or Ladies Companion at any time, but all Governors-General and Prime Ministers (usually upon retirement from politics) may be granted the honour, regardless of the limit. No more than eight Knights or Ladies Companion can be appointed in one year. There are currently 23 Knights and Ladies Companion of the Order of the Palm.
