F Knights what where they

 Knights are a interesting topic because there so popular in books and for plays and things. But what really where they. Well most knights of course where of people of great valor and of great strength. They actually did protect the poor and those below them they also where noble men of sorts. They where on duty as a mobile fighting force always active not like the army. Since they where so strong they mostly used much heavier large and better weapons than those lower than them. As those lower than them could not afford a horse and armor and weapons such as heavy axes and broadswords.
