So, this, like many orders of chivalry today is the subject of some confusion and tension. Back on the Wikipedia, I suggested a system for organizing the Hospitallers and several related groups. Not much came of it, but I thought I'd propose a similar plan here:
*[[Knights Hospitaller]] (covering the general broad history of the movement from its beginnings in the Holy Land to present)
*[[Alliance of Orders of St John]] (a description of the structure and purpose of this group)
:*[[Order of Malta]] (the Catholic order with extended history from the beginnings to present)
:The Four Main Protestant Orders
:*[[Venerable Order of Saint John|Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem]] (England, etc.)
:*[[Johanniterorden I Sverige]] (Sweden)
:*[[Johanniter Orde in Nederland]] (Netherlands)
:*[[Brandenburg Bailiwick]] (Germany)
:The Four non-German Commanderies of the Bailiwick of Brandenburg
:*[[Swiss Commandery of the Order of St John]] (Switzerland)
:*[[French Commandery of the Order of St John]] (France)
:*[[Hungarian Commandery of the Order of St John]] (Hungary)
:*[[Finnish Commandery of the Order of St John]] (Finland)

Organization

So, this, like many orders of chivalry today is the subject of some confusion and tension. Back on the Wikipedia, I suggested a system for organizing the Hospitallers and several related groups. Not much came of it, but I thought I'd propose a similar plan here:

  • Order of Malta (the Catholic order with extended history from the beginnings to present)
The Four Main Protestant Orders
The Four non-German Commanderies of the Bailiwick of Brandenburg
