let's learn a bit about the Samurai warrior of old first though, back in the feudal days of Japan. Samurai warriors were a social class in feudal Japan, serving as military nobility and the personal retainers of the country's rulers. They were trained in martial arts and were expected to follow a strict code of ethics known as bushido. Their duties included:
Protecting their lords and serving as their personal guards.
Maintaining order in their local areas, serving as law enforcement.
Participating in military campaigns and battles.
Representing their lords in negotiations and other diplomatic affairs.
Maintaining a sense of discipline and moral behavior to uphold the honor of their lord and themselves.
In addition to their military duties, samurai were also expected to be cultured and well-educated, with a strong emphasis placed on literary and artistic pursuits.
