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:
- 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
- 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)
