I put my entire kids college fund on a hand of blackjack and the table yielded 9 7s. This is astronomical and is blatant cheating.

The Orcish Empire (reason for all the problems in the Middle-Ae (vos) helped create Caurost (fake nation state) with the "Mandate Declaration" after the Ilumrins (rich bankers living within Lurak) sponsored their war with Vikela (Imperialist Power of the South, during South War I) they claimed that Birch_Forest_Tile_1 was promised to them 10 years (saint years) ago by Gaahd (lur.) After this they launched a war of aggression against the peaceful inhabitants of the Birth Tiles (Silasia) under the guise of protecting their borders.
Now Caurost wants war with The Vale? Why because they're enriching Thanium? This has got to be a joke! (The Imperial Senate is controlled by Carusotians btw)

I blame Game Of Thrones for convincing everyone knights were plotting schemers or thugs and not silly guys on horses who occasionally massacre an entire city bc the enemy rage baited them

This is true, but we cannot disregard this was a major factor within the crusades, not within calling said crusades. I agree that Urban II called the crusades as a retaliatory measure against Islamic aggressions since its forming and their encroachment/conquest nearing Europe. However this factor of Knights being sent over to the middle east because of their known aggression, which was found in accounts attributed to the times, such as the account of Urban II's preaching at Clermont by Fulcher of Chartes, but also in the account of Anna Komnenos of the Byzantine Empire speaking of the barbarity of the European Knights. It was a gamble Pope Urban II did with sending the violent knights overseas, but to ensure such a gamble he then gave all crusaders "immediate remission of sins" to entice the marauders even further.
However, my claim of knights and their violence, was not only justified by my stating of the crusades, only as an additional support to such. Knights did act as enforcers for their liege lords, stomping out peasants and such, which is simple to ascertain due to the numerous peasant revolts that have propped up in Europe. Whether from the Hussite Wars to the rebellion of Jack Cade to the Frisian Peasant Rebellion, their success varying between each war but the factor remains that there were knights stomping the peasants fighting for survival against the oppressive status quo.
In addition, Chivalry as a concept was not forged until the 12th century at the least, and such a thing was created and formulated throughout medieval society to not only bind Knights and Nobility alike to a code but to fight back against there violent nature. These are professional soldiers, killers, warriors alike, they are not like the romances of fantasy because it is a fantasy.

@MonteGiantCompletely fair, yea I find it interesting that a lot of the chivalry concepts and motifs came from interaction with the Islamic and Persian worlds :)
