The star was instituted in 1916 by command of Sultan Mehmet V Reshad (1844-1918, reigned since 1909) for the opening of the third parlamentary session of the National Assembly of the Ottoman Empire and handed over to the deputies. Probably there do not exist issues with other years of other sessions.
