Knights and Chivalry
  • The life of a knight was thought to be romantic,
    but in reality, it wasnt. Armor was hot and
    heavy and battles were bloody. In addition, the
    code of chivalry was difficult to uphold
    consistently. Also, some knights were just
    bullies who preyed on the weak and helpless.
