Structure of The Order
Originally the order had four principal officers whose duties were to administer its affairs:
- Chancellor
- Secretary
- Treasurer
- Master of Ceremonies
These duties were limited by a reform of August 17, 1827 to certain ceremonial roles at the installation of knights, and no successors were appointed to the then holders of these offices.

There are fewer and fewer forests, rivers are drying up, wildlife has become extinct, the climate is ruined, and the earth is becoming ever poorer and uglier.”
