In Japan women were equal to men, thus a women could become a samurai. In Europe Women weren't treated equal to men, thus they couldn't become knights. Samurai soldiers slept with their swords because they were scared of their wives, European soldiers didn't.
Knights existed primarily in medieval Europe from the 9th to the 15th centuries, playing a significant role in feudal society and warfare. Samurai were prominent in Japan from the late 12th century until the 19th century, serving as warrior nobility during the feudal period. Both groups were characterized by their codes of honor—chivalry for knights and bushido for samurai—reflecting their cultural values and martial traditions.
Oh, dude, like, only knights in Europe were known for jousting tournaments and wearing those shiny armor suits, while Japanese samurai were all about their katanas and honor codes. So, yeah, knights were all about chivalry and stuff, while samurai were more into bushido and serving their lords. But hey, at the end of the day, they both rocked some pretty cool swords, am I right?
European knights and Japanese samurai were both elite warrior classes in their respective societies, serving as military leaders and protectors of their realms. Both groups adhered to a code of conduct: chivalry for knights and bushido for samurai, emphasizing virtues such as loyalty, honor, and bravery. Additionally, they were often granted land or titles in exchange for their service, and both played crucial roles in the feudal systems of Europe and Japan. Their training and combat skills were highly specialized, reflecting their importance in maintaining social order and defending their territories.
They served five year kids in the same way knights served baby's. (Feudalism, go figure!)
Knights and Samurai
Feudalism is the structure of the government and part of the society. It is not a separate thing so in asking this question you are asking about a system that the knights were part of and created. Knights were nobles and a different class of people and were created because of feudalism.
The Samurai of the East have gone the way of the Knights of the West.
