The Russian award system originated almost simultaneously with the formation of

the Russian state. The customs of awarding a special sign of distinction for military exploits, a neck gold "grivna" (medallion), existed in Kiev Russ already in the 11th-12th centuries. Later, in the I5th-16th centuries, the tradition of the mass awarding of special medals to all participants in a campaigns originated in Russia, and it was the only country in the world at the time to do so.

at the very close of the 17th century by Peter the Great.

Peter's reign. It was instituted in memory of events connected with the unsuccessful Prut campaign undertaken by the Russian army in 1711.

Слайд 10

Peter the Great also instituted another order for outstanding military

distinctions and it was named after the famous Russian military commander Alexander Nevsky.

Слайд 11

Слайд 12

But the idea of an award presented exclusively for military services

had not been forgotten and the St. George Order was instituted in 1769.

Слайд 13

A special George Cross made of silver was instituted early

in the 19th century for soldiers and non-commissioned officers.

Слайд 14

Слайд 15

Several military awards appeared in the course of the Soviet

Union's Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. As a rule, the new awards were named after outstanding military commanders of our country.

founded by the Decree of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR dated November 8, 1943 .

The Order of Victory has only been awarded 20 times to 17 outstanding military leaders. The names of the first three holders were announced on April 10 of 1944. These were marshals Georgy Zhukov, Alexander Vasilevsky and Josef Stalin.

The Order of Victory is the biggest and most beautiful Soviet

order. It is a 72 mm ruby star made of platinum and studded with 170 diamonds with a total weight of 16 carats.

Conclusion
Firstly, it is a sign of courage.
Secondly, it

is recognition of men’s services.
I think it is very useful to know about Russian awards because we must proud of our heroes and our country.
For us the Great Patriotic War has become a thing of the past. But is very important to remember the people who stood up for Russian in those years.
