Djibouti - French Protectorate: Order of Nichan
el Anouar (Arabic: Order of the Light), Knight's
Star.
The Order was established in 1887, in 5 classes,
by Hamed ben Mohamed, Sultan of Tadjourah,
in commemoration of placing the Sultanate
under the "French Protection".
It was issued to reward meritorious services to
the Sultanate and France.
It became a French Colonial Order of the French
Somaliland in 1896 and it was discontinued by
France in 1963, being replaced by the National
Order of Merit.
This is a nice example of the WW1 era.
