Yes, Japanese daimyo were somewhat analogous to knights in Medieval Europe, as both were powerful feudal lords with land and military obligations. Daimyo commanded samurai, similar to how knights served their noble lords in battle. While the cultural contexts and social structures differed significantly, both played crucial roles in their respective feudal systems, governing land and maintaining loyalty through a code of honor and service.

In feudal Japan, a "Daimyo" was the Lord of a Fife and usually a Samurai in very high standing. He was supposed to be loyal to the Shogun and he collected taxes from the local population, defended the land and represented the "law". A samurai often became a Daimyo as a reward for services rendered to the Shogun. The people of the land were supposed to be loyal to the Daimyo. They were a little like a knight in Europe, and like knights, there were good and bad.

False. Both knights in medieval Europe and samurai in feudal Japan were required to swear vows of loyalty to their lord or daimyo. Loyalty was a core aspect of their code of conduct and honor.
The Japanese daimyo was similar to the European Lord.
Both European medieval knights and Japanese samurai warriors pledged oaths of loyalty to their respective lords or masters. This feudal loyalty was central to their roles, as knights served noble lords in exchange for land and protection, while samurai adhered to the Bushido code, which emphasized honor, duty, and allegiance to their daimyo. These oaths underscored their commitment to serve and protect their leaders, often at the cost of their own lives. The honor associated with these vows was crucial to both warrior cultures.

They followed the code of Bushido, "The Way of the Warrior". They are usually considered a privileged class. They were much like knights were to lords in Dark Age Europe; they owned land that was derived from their daimyo, or warlord, whom they would fight for in battle. Samurai were the backbone of Japanese feudal society. Samurai were loyal to their daimyo, since the daimyo was the leader of given clan, which was one of the social basis of Japanese society. They wore highly effective multi-layered armor and fought with probably the best made swords in the world, using one of the best techniques in the world.
