In New Zealand and Australia, the legislative branches are referred to as the Parliament. The US refers to their branches as the Congress, the United Kingdom refers to their branches as the Crown, and I'm pretty sure the Monarchy doesn't exist. Hope this helps!
In the story of Don Quixote, Don Quixote acts like a knight trying to attack the windmills because he thought they were giants. Although this is a funny scenario, we can see the instances of chivalric values. First would be courage. Though he knew he was going up against "giants", he still went for the attack. This was also a display of faith in oneself and his convictions. He also believed that he had to attack the "giants" before they attacked the land. Another would be nobility. He decided to do this simply because it was a part of his own principles. Even if he knew that he was probably going to die, he stuck up to his own sense of justice. Of course, there would be justice. He believed that justice had to be upheld so that his imaginary enemies won't conquer. These are all values that knights had in their code of chivalry.
The Norman conquest of England, led by William the Conqueror (r. 1066-1087 CE) was achieved over a five-year period from 1066 CE to 1071 CE. Hard-fought battles, castle building, land redistribution, and scorched earth tactics ensured that the Normans were here to stay. The conquest saw the Norman elite replace that of the Anglo-Saxons and take over the country’s lands, the Church was restructured, a new architecture was introduced in the form of motte and bailey castles and Romanesque cathedrals, feudalism became much more widespread, and the English language absorbed thousands of new French words, amongst a host of many other lasting changes which all combine to make the Norman invasion a momentous watershed in English history.
