La puin timp dup Unirea Principatelor Romne din 1859, domnitorul Alexandru Ioan Cuza a fost preocupat de ideea de a institui ordine i medalii, care s fie conferite unor persoane pentru servicii aduse n slujba rii. Primul proiect pentru instituirea Ordinului Spicul de Aur, inspirat dup Legiunea de Ono are francez , urm are a ev enimentelor politice interne, nu a putut fi naintat spre votare. A urm at apoi instituirea medaliei Pro Virtute Militari pentru supravieuitorii btliei din Dealul Spirii (septembrie 1848), medalie pe car e Cuza nu o v a mai nmna pent ru a nu d eranja Turcia. La cinci ani de la Unire, el a dorit s instituie un ordin naional care s fie conferit la aceast aniversare i care se num ea Ordinul Unirii. nsemnele acestuia au f ost comandate la o C as d e bijuterii din Paris. Din pcate, aceast a nu a putut onora comanda la data aniversar, iar ntre timp, despre intenia domnitorului romn, s-a aflat la cancelariile de la Viena i Istanbul, strnind un adevrat scandal diplomatic. n anul 1864, Cuza mai bate dou med alii Virtutea Militar i Devot ament i Curagiu. Sub domnia lui Carol I este creat sistemul de decoraii al Romniei. Printre cele mai importante, amintim primul ordin romnesc dup Pr oclamarea Independen ei i anume Steaua Rom niei. Urmeaz apoi medaliile Serviciul Credincios i Virtutea Militar. Dup Proclamarea Reg atului se instituie un al doilea ordin, plasat ierarhic sub Steaua Rom niei i anume Coroana Romniei. n acelai timp mai sunt instituite numeroas e m edalii pentru a se rsplti munca unor cat egorii sociale, cum ar fi nvtorii, profesorii, poliitii, preoii, medicii, cei care lucreaz n domeniul comerului i industriei. n perioada domniei regelui Ferdinand i a Primului Rzboi Mondial, se instituie Ordinul militar Mihai Viteazul, medalia Virtutea militar de rzboi, m edalia Brbie i Credin, Ordinul Crucea Reginei Maria i Crucea Meritul Sanitar. Dup ncheierea r zboiului se instituie, n 1921, n toate rile Antantei (Frana, Anglia, Serbia, Italia, Romnia, Stat ele Unite ale Americii), medalia Victoriei; fiecare stat i btea propria med alie, pe baza unui singur tip de imagine simbol, panglica n culorile curcubeului fiind comun. Regele Carol al II-lea aduce numeroase schimbri n cadrul sistemului de decoraii, instituind printre altele, Ordinul Carol I, Ferdinand I, Virtutea Aeronautic, Meritul Cultural, Vulturul Romniei, Ordinul i Medalia Bene Mer enti al Casei Domnitoare, Medalia Maritim, Ordinul Militar Sfntul Gheorghe. Dup abdicarea forat a Regelui Mihai I, la 30 decembrie 1947, toate simbolurile tradiionale ale statului au fost abolite, inclusiv ntregul sistem de decoraii civile i militare n uz pn la acea dat. Noile decoraii ale Republicii Populare Romne au fost copiate dup cele ale Uniunii Sovietice, iar dup schimbarea denumirii rii n Republica Socialist Romnia, distinciile create se modernizeaz, renunndu-se parial la steaua roie sovietic, n cinci coluri. Ordinele aflate astzi n uz, au fost r einstituite n baza Legii nr. 29, din anul 2000, ns pentru Ordinul Steaua Romniei, pentru a se f ace fa n evoilor de protocol extern, Guvernul a dat o Ordonan de Urgen care ulterior a dev enit Legea nr. 77 din 1999. Timbrul cu valoarea nominal de 30 Bani repr ezint Ordinul Naional Serviciul Credincios, n grad de Mare Ofier (pent ru civili). Timbrul cu valoarea nominal de 80 Bani reprezint Ordinul Naional Steaua Romniei, n grad de Mare Ofier (pentru civili). Timbrul cu valoarea nominal de 2,20 L ei reprezint Ordinul Naional Pentru Merit, n grad de Mar e Ofier (pent ru civili). Timbrul cu valoarea nominal de 2,50 L ei reprezint Ordinul Meritul Sportiv Clasa 1. Emisiunea filatelic Ordinele Romniei a fost r ealizat cu sprijinul Cancelariei Ordinelor a Administraiei Prezideniale.
