The "Sovereign Order of Saint John of Jerusalem" was coming back to Malta in 1964 after surviving ongoing via Russia (1798-1917) and USA (1908-1964).
In 1798 Napoleon was successfully launching his invasion to Cyprus and part of the Knights were escaping to Russia, where Czar Paul I was giving his patronage to the Order as GrandMaster. Around 15 years later several Knights were re-establishing the Order aswel in Rome under the Patronage of the Pope. Therefore the world is recognizing two different orders in the same name and similar appearance, besides some few others.
