Order of the National Hero (Belize)

The Order of the National Hero is the highest honour awarded by the government of Belize. The Order of the National Hero is given for "extraordinary and outstanding achievement and merit in service to Belize or to humanity at large." Unlike the lower Order of Belize which can be awarded to foreign dignitaries, only Belizean citizens are eligible for the Order of the National Hero.

gollark: And practical hidden flaws are more like "if you encrypt 2^16 bytes with the same key it is possible to determine some of the plaintext with slightly higher probability" or known plaintext attacks and such, rather than "hahaha any message whatsoever can be decrypted".
gollark: I have some rough ideas but they'd probably be obvious to anyone competent.
gollark: I would, but I would have to actually know cryptography, which is nontrivial.
