Need help to ID four orders

[Kvart]

I'm not sure where to put this thread, but I'll try here.

I have this picture of a Norwegian miniature group. The three first awards are Norwegian: order of St. Olav, knight 1st class, king Olav Vs 100 years medal and the medal for service as conscript in the navy.

But the four last orders are unknown to me. Are they known to you, gentlemen?

Mind's gone blank, but the 1st of those 4 is one of the inter-wars baltic republics-- Latvia? Estonia? 2nd is the Merit Order from Horthy Hungary, with an "officer" class rosette affixed that was not psrt of the award as issued in Hungary.

Number 4 looks like the Estonian Order of the White Star.

Number 5 looks Hungarian.

Thank you for your help, you are right.

Number 4 is the Order of white star from Estonia: http://www.medalj.nu/ribbon_info.asp?build...C-E71C200277A6}

And number 5 is the Order of merit from Hungary: http://www.medalj.nu/ribbon_info.asp?build...6-F486DDBF394A}

Only the last two left...

Hello Kvart,

The one but last seems to be the 2nd (and present) type of the Italian Order of Merit of the Republic. Here's a picture of a full size one :

Cheers,

Looks like you're right. Thank you, Hendrik!

Estonia, Hungary, Italy, Portugal.

From Portugal, you say? Do you know the name of the order?

the last decoration is

Portugal, Order of Merit (Ordem da Benemer?ncia/Ordem do Merito), instituted 1929

The Hungarian Merit Order is very likely the post 1992 type of this Order; that of the current republic given 1) the center is of that type [crest on shield rather than undifferented] 2) the ribbon color and 3) the contemporary nature of this bar. Edited March 9, 2009 by 922F

Thank you ever so much for your help! :D

Forgot to say that Estonia revived the White Star Order after regaining independence.
