International Orangeism

The Orange Institution is truly an International Organisation with members throughout the world.  The Institution spread as the benefits of a religious and fraternal organisation became obvious. Military Warrants were issued from the earliest years of the Institution and this may have added to the growth of Orangeism as serving soldiers carried their culture and identity throughout the Empire. Orangeism spread to Montreal in 1818, Australia in 1845, Togo in 1915 and Ghana in 1928.   Below you will find brief details and history of 'overseas' jurisdictions.
