What did a knight do in medieval times?

Answer 1

A knight defended the castle, his lord and people, and attacked the invaders.

They had tournaments to practice their swordplay, although some tournaments weren't just all fun and games, some knights truly became hurt. Also, some tournaments were held to finish disagreements, as they thought God would choose the right one to win.

Most Knights meals, were eaten on trenchers, round, flat stale bread which was given to peasants or the dogs after they were used.

Answer 2

A knight in medieval times was a skilled warrior trained in combat and horsemanship. They were often in service to a lord or king, providing military protection and fighting in battles. Knights were expected to uphold the code of chivalry, which included virtues such as bravery, loyalty, and honor.

Answer 3

Over the years the knights slowly disappeared to the state they are now strictly a title of honor with no real power. The thing that brought the knight's era to an end was technology and this moved in stages. The first weakening was the invention of the crossbow and later the arbalest (which was a very powerful crossbow) these weapons could be used by someone with very little training and they were powerful enough to stab through the best armour of a knight. By 1500, most of the knights lived peacefully on their manors.

Answer 4

Leach off of the hard-working citizens of the land while pretending to have pro skills with weapons, much like the capitalist dogs versus man, united in his struggle to free himself from capitalism and all its evils.

Answer 5

to be a knight, you had to come from a noble family and had to be a boy. it took a while to be a knight as you started training at the age of seven. First of all you learnt how to sing, ride horses go hawking etc. Then at the age of 13 or 15 i think, you became a squire. if you were good enough, then you would become a knight. Also, if you were a good fighter in battle, you would sometimes be knighted on the battlefield.

hope this helps you.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean but they fought whom they were told to fight but were mostly told to fight in wars. The knights fought for and dedicated their life to him/ her leader
