Knight was the most significant military figure of the feudal system of the European Middle Ages. He was mounted warrior dressed in a suit of armor. The word knight derived from the Old English word cniht, meaning horseman. Knighthood boomed before the time of guns when battles were still won by hand-to-hand conflicts of heavy-armored knights. Their major undertake were the Crusades, where thousands died.
Even in time of peace, knights looked for conflicts in which to engage. Fighting was almost an everyday event, and the common people generally could not protect themselves against an invading enemy.
