Another was that the fictional knights are the subjects of fiction people like to remember, but historic knights seem oddly less real. Nevertheless here are a few: Roland, the character of the Song of Roland, who was realSir William Marshal, 1st Earl of PembrokeSir William Douglas, who fought for Scottish independenceSir William Wallace, also a Scottish patriotKing Richard I of England, who was knighted by King Louis VII of FranceSir Thomas Mallory, remembered for writing Le Morte d'Arthur.Jean II Le Maingre, marshall of France during the Hundred Years' WarRodrigo Díaz de Vivar, Spanish knight remembered as El CidHugues de Payens, a founder of the Knights TemplarJacques de Molay, last Grand Master of the Knights Templar
