What else did you expect ? That's the alpha and omega of chivalry.
What are you talking about? Portugal has the Lusiad(s), one of the greatest examples of Medieval literature.

If you actually went to a library once in a while you'd know that we have multiple good medieval romances yeh fucking inbred bastard.
If you're searching for great knights and tales, look at Geraldo Geraldes, Paio Peres Correia, you have the story of the Twelve of England, of Martim Moniz, the tale of D.Inês de Castro, etc.
Your forefathers may have not have accepted the one true faith but your grandsons will.

Fight me in real life in a joust knave, there's a lot of things you can say about him but he had no peasant's soul. He was forced to become a sword for hire. And he was never disloyal to his lord despite the fact that he was literally banished by him for no good reason.

Because you should have payed attention to your history classes from the first day anon.
