Hey guys, Caroline the Line here! I was just reading about Samurai – a group of skilled warriors in ancient Japan – and thought I’d share what I learned with you!

The samurai were members of a powerful military caste in feudal Japan that existed from the 12th to the 19th century. They were highly skilled in combat and were trained in various martial arts, including swordsmanship and archery. Samurai were also trained in literature, art, and other aspects of culture, which made them well-rounded and respected members of society.

The samurai followed a strict code of conduct called Bushido, which emphasized honor, loyalty, and bravery. Bushido also stressed the importance of serving one’s lord and putting the needs of the group ahead of one’s own desires. The samurai were expected to be virtuous and to embody the highest ideals of Japanese society.

The samurai played an important role in Japanese history, serving as the protectors of their lords and fighting in battles and wars. They were known for their bravery and discipline on the battlefield and were highly respected by both their allies and enemies.
