　　The spirit of chivalry in European culture has always been a symbol of pride for Westerners, and to us, this term is not unfamiliar, often seen in some foreign novels. However, do you know what kind of people the knights in the Western Middle Ages were, and how this group was formed?

　　When it comes to knights, the first image that comes to our mind may be a muscular man riding on a horse with a majestic aura, holding a shield, holding a sword high, and fighting fiercely with blood. But when you think about it this way, it's easy to have doubts. Look, back to ancient Greece, Rome, and later the Persian Empire, there were also similar cavalry like this? Why are the cavalry that dominated the West after the Middle Ages called knights?

　　In fact, the knight class is not judged solely by appearance. In the early days, due to underdeveloped horse equipment, cavalry had to tightly clamp their horse's belly with their legs to prevent them from falling! Later on, the cavalry corps gradually developed, but in nature they were only conscripted and could not be labeled as "knights".

　　The formation of the knight class began with the reforms of Charlemagne in the Frankish Kingdom in the 8th century. Due to frequent wars, Charlemagne greatly needed the power of cavalry. But the equipment of cavalry is too expensive, how can we feed them? He decided to partition the country's land to the cavalry, which would provide them with land security and money to buy their own armor; Secondly, they took the king's land and naturally had to be loyal to the monarch. In this way, Charlemagne had a formidable army, capable of attacking wherever he pointed. Isn't he very intelligent? After this, the cavalry had to prepare all the horses, armor, weapons, and so on they needed themselves, which ordinary farmers couldn't afford and gradually became excluded. These landowners became nobles, and only these nobles were qualified to become cavalry, thus forming the knight class as we know it now.
