What was the name of Men in middle ages that promised to live and fight for the church?
There were monastic orders of men who took such vows. They included the Knights Templar, Knights Hospitaller, and Teutonic Knights, and possibly others. The crusaders were rather like this also, but they were not necessarily under vows. There are links below.
What were the Knights Templars famous for?
Both the Knights Templar and the Hospitallers were Orders of monks. The Templar Order was accepted into the Church of Rome by Pope in 1129, when their first Rule was compiled to regulate their dress, equipment and religious services. This put them on exactly the same level as other Orders of monks: the Cluniacs, Benedictines and Cistercians - with one major difference:Their task was primarily to protect Christian pilgrims travelling to Jerusalem, so they became a military religious Order consisting of knights, non-noble serjantz and servants who worked as labourers, craftsmen, cooks, grooms and so on. All of them were also (first and foremost) monks, and the Templars also included priests to conduct daily services, hear confessions and give absolution to those killed in battle. Death on the battlefield as a member of the Order was considered Christian martyrdom, meaning that a Templar would expect to go straight to Heaven.The Order of Knights Templar was abolished by Pope Clement IV in 1312, just 183 years after its acceptance by an earlier Pope. People who today pretend that the Order can be re-established conveniently forget the main part of the Templar function: as monks within the Catholic Church, regulated by a Pope and having religious conviction as their primary function.MoreThe function of the Knights Templar, to protect pilgrims, was extended to protect the property of the pilgrims, both on the road and at home. Money and other valuables were often deposited with the Knights Templar for safekeeping. In many cases, money was deposited for transportation, and this eventually turned into a system under which money could be deposited in one place and withdrawn in another. Naturally, the Knights Templar provided a prototype for the early banks.The collapse of the Templars created a need for others to provide the same service. This need was met by merchant families, whose members traveled under guard, and who could manage property for clients. This gave rise to the system of banking that appeared in the Late Middle Ages.There is a link below to an article on the Knights Templar, to the section describing their economic importance relative to banking.
What treasure did the knights of templar find?
gold gold, silver, jewels and possible even the holy grail that jesus drunk out of at the last supper. they supposedly found this in jerusalem. the treasure is rumored to be buried in temple dinsley, hertfordshire, uk, since that is where the knights who were killed for hiding treasure from king edward ll lived. it is likely buried there because the knights wanted to watch over it and make sure no one came looking for it. it is supposedly buried under an old oak tree (possibly now cut down) or under a pond for security (however the pond has since been dug over and there is a new pond in the village though it is unlikely on the same spot as the last, and no one knows exactly where the old pond was. it could even be under a house or something. infact the exact spot where the knights lived now has a school on top of it.)

Can anyone join the knights Templar?
The Order of the Poor Knights of Christ and of the Templar of Solomon has been disbanded for a long time now. It would be impossible for a modern day Catholic to join an order which doesn't exist anymore, don't you think ? If you are referring to freemasonry then no, Catholics and Orthodox Christians can't join anything order related to freemasonry because their basic concept is opposed to the teaching of the Church, If you really want to join a chivalrious order the Roman Catholic Church already got it's own : The Sovereign Military Order of Malta, which you can join only by invitation, The Knights of Columbus, The Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre, The Teutonic Order ( which is now a monk order ) and there's also a templar association, without any direct link to the old order, which is under the approval and protection of the Vatican as an order for traditionalist catholics. That particular association is called Militia Templi and it's the only modern templar group which is under the approval of the church and which follows the rules of St. Bernard.

What rank ruled Rome emperors kings or lords?
The Knights Templar were permitted to eat three times a day (if their master permitted it). Meat was permitted three times a week, excepting on holy days and in that case, meat would be eaten the next day. They were permitted vegetables on other days and, obviously, bread. They had to eat in silence and could read a holy book whilst eating. Taking into account the conditions under which everyone else lived in the middle ages - they had it good.
