The purpose of the code of chivalry is primarily to give knights standards of behavior. This code outlined the ideals and moral principles that knights were expected to uphold, including bravery, honor, loyalty, and respect for women and the weak. It was intended to govern the conduct of knights both in battle and in their personal lives.
