The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The modern character types that match the characters in the prologue of canterbury tales are the following: the knight can be compared to a modern-day soldier. The friar could be the equivalent of what today is a priest. The Sargent at law is a modern-day lawyer. Oxford clerk could be a student with some extra duties. The Merchant could be a modern-day business person or the one who attends its shop.

"The Canterbury Tales" was written by  English author Geoffrey Chaucer, approximately in the 1390s. The book includes 24 stories that make it one of the classic readings in British literature.

In the prologue of The Canterbury Tales, the Knight is introduced as a mercenary character. One possible modern analog for the Knight is Thomas Michael Hoare (Mad Mike), the Irish mercenary leader known for military battles in Africa and the Indian Ocean.
