"After the reorganization of the orders in 1975 the order is only awarded to foreigners and members of the royal family."

I am removing this sentance on 3 count's;

1) Henrik Larsson was awarded the Order of the Polar Star post 1975

2) He is not a member of the Swedish royal family

3) He is Swedish, so is therefore not a 'foreigner'

These 3 counts make the above statment a piece of pish....so delete.

No, he did not. Henrik Larsson has received the medal of his Majesty the King and an OBE from Queen Elisabeth II. There has been no awarding of the Order of the Polar Star to Swedish citizens since 1975. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.242.105.245 (talk) 00:32, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
