Even though Queen Maud of Norway was born into the British Royal Family, there is no record that she influenced any awards from the British to Roald Amundsen.

This avoidance could also have been influenced by Amundsen's success at leading the team to first stand at the South Pole, a quest of the British Royal Navy Captain, Robert Falcon Scott, which ended tragically in many expedition deaths.
