Primary Decoration (مقدماتي)
For nearly about 10 years after the Iranian Revolution, there weren't any official civil orders in use; hence none were awarded. This is ironic given the backdrop of Saddam's invasion and the long war that followed it. It was around the early 1990s when the government decided to establish new types of official civil orders and introduced about 12 or 14 types of civil and military orders, each in 3 classes. Unfortunately there is no available official database or photo about them.
