The Militaire Orde van Watervoort, or Military Order of Watervoort in English is a Jingdaoese military order that was established by Simon ben Erasmus' Imperial Decree 4 on October 18 2012. Goal of the order was to protect the Freestate of Zeeburg from Batavian aggression at a moment when Jingdaoese forces were not formally allowed on the island. Even when Zeeburg was diplomatically annexed into the Kingdom of Batavia the order was not abolished, instead it was maintained a limited presence on the island. When the Kingdom of Batavia and the Holy Empire of Jingdao at Sea signed a treaty on January 16 2014 which transferred ownership of Zeeburg to Jingdao the Military Order of Watervoort was restored to its former glory with Emperor Hirohito Rasmus promising to send more troops to Zeeburg.
