The Age of Chivalry
• Setting the Stage. During the Middle Ages, nobles constantly fought one another. Their feuding kept Europe in a fragmented state for centuries. Through warfare, feudal lords defended their estates, seized new territories, and increased their wealth. Lords and their armies lived in a violent society that prized combat skills. By the 1100s, though, a code of behavior began to arise. High ideals guided warriors’ actions and glorified their roles.

The Ten Commandments of the Medieval Code of Chivalry:
• Thou shalt believe all that the Church teaches, and shalt observe all its directions.
• Thou shalt defend the Church. • Thou shalt respect all weaknesses, and shalt constitute thyself the
defender of them. • Thou shalt love the country in the which thou wast born. • Thou shalt not recoil before the enemy. • Thou shalt make war against the Infidel without cessation, and without
mercy. • Thou shalt perform scrupulously thy feudal duties, if they be not contrary
to the laws of God. • Thou shalt never lie, and shalt remain faithful to thy pledged word. • Thou shalt be generous, and give largesse to everyone. • Thou shalt be everywhere and always the champion of the Right and the
Good against Injustice and Evil.

Knights: Warriors on Horseback
• Soldiers mounted on horseback became valuable in combat in the 700s when Europeans saw that the Muslim cavalry (soldiers on horses) often turned the tide of battles. As a result, the Frankish army organized troops of armored horsemen, or knights.
