The organization ‘Le Mérite et Dévouement Français’ was founded in 1957 to encourage and recognise those who contribute to the prestige of France in the fields of culture, arts, letters, science and sport. The Legion of Honour was instituted in 1802 by Napoleon Bonaparte. It is the highest French order of merit and is awarded for eminent service to the nation, civilian or military, in five grades: Grand Cross, Grand Officer, Commander, Officer and Knight. The Third Republic government was in power from 1870 to 1940.
