knightly ideals

Knightly ideals are principles that medieval knights strived to embody, including bravery, loyalty, honor, and justice. They aimed to protect the weak, uphold their promises, and act with integrity both on and off the battlefield. These ideals were rooted in a sense of moral duty and the pursuit of a higher moral code, often guided by religious beliefs. While rooted in medieval chivalry, these values continue to influence concepts of moral conduct, service, and integrity in modern contexts.
