The Colonial Order of the Star of Italy (Italian: Ordine coloniale della Stella d'Italia [ˈordine koloˈnjaːle della ˈstεlla diˈtaːlja]) was founded as a colonial order of chivalry on 18 June 1914 by Italian King Victor Emmanuel III, to reward soldiers deployed to the colony of Libya. The order had fallen into abeyance by 1943, when Allied forces conquered the colonies of Italian North Africa.[1]
