KNIGHTS RULE!!!

Knights are those that protected the lands of Europe. They protected women, children, and the weak as they followed a code of honor called chivalry. Chivalry was like the bushido in Japan that the Samurai followed, however, knights followed the Catholic Church instead of Buddhism or Shintoism. Why are knights better than Samurai you say? Why? Although knights have heavy armor that weighs about 65 pounds and the sword about 30 pounds, the knights were trained to fight the way they can fight with the heaviness. If the suit of armor was hard to bear and carry why would they continue making them and telling the knights to wear them. There was a reason why that knights kept their fighting style. The reason is that they could manage with the heaviness that there was no reason to change the style of fighting like how samurai fight. Samurai have a disadvantage of fighting because some parts of their body are not covered with protection while the knights have tons of protection. Knights also protected the lord, land, women, weak, and the children. However, the samurai only protected their land and the lord or the daimyo. Knights gave more consideration than samurai did because samurai had to protect their lord although they couldn't protect their family. Samurai also killed themselves if they did something terribly wrong by suiciding. However, knights were given a second chance to make up for what they did wrong and most of them actually fulfill that task. Knights were cool in the sense that there was so much information that I could look up and share with you!!!!
