Contextual Information

The Loyal Orange Institution, commonly known as the Orange Order, is an international Protestant fraternal order based in Northern Ireland. The Orange Order was founded in County Armagh in 1795, during a period of Protestant–Catholic sectarian conflict, as a Masonic-style fraternity sworn to maintain the Protestant Ascendancy. It arrived in Australia through military Lodges in the 1830s and by mid-century had spread across the country as one aspect of sectarian division in Australia.
