The Most Ancient and noble «Order of the Thistle» is an order of chivalry associated with Scotland. The modern form of the Order was founded in 1687 by King James VII of Scotland. On two sides of this Order we can see the Sovereign and sixteen Knights and Ladies, as well as certain "extra" knights (members of the British Royal Family and foreign monarchs).
The composition of the order
4 слайд
The Order's main emblem is the thistle, the national flower of Scotland. The motto is «Nemo me impune lacessit» (Latin for "No one provokes me with impunity"). The same motto appears on the Royal Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom for use in Scotland and some pound coins, and is also the motto of the Royal Regiment of Scotland, Scots Guards, The Black Watch (Royal Highland Regiment) of Canada and Royal Scots Dragoon Guards. The patron saint of the Order is St Andrew.

Most British orders of chivalry are award for the whole United Kingdom, but the Order of the Thistle, is only for Scotland and the second-most senior in the list of importance. Its equivalent in England, the most noble «Order of the Garter», is the oldest documented order of chivalry in the United Kingdom, dating to the middle of the fourteenth century. In 1783 an Irish order, The Most Illustrious «Order of St Patrick», was founded, but nowadays it doesn't‘ exist.

The St Andrew, also called the badge-appendant, is worn suspended from the collar. It comprises a gold enamelled depiction of St Andrew, wearing a green gown and purple coat, holding a white saltire. Gold rays of a glory are shown emanating from St Andrew's head. The Star of the Order consists of a silver St Andrew's saltire, with clusters of rays between the arms thereof. In the centre a green circle is depicted bearing the motto of the Order in gold majuscules; within the circle, a thistle on a gold field is depicted. It is worn pinned to the left breast.
The broad riband is a dark green sash worn across the body, from the left shoulder to the right hip.
