Orders began to be created ''ad hoc'' and in a more courtly nature.

Colonial Order Of Chivalry
A colonial order of chivalry was an order of chivalry awarded by European colonial states in Africa and Asia for those who conquered and administered their territories. They were sometimes adopted by post-colonial successor states, or remained one of the former imperial power's orders of chivalry.
