A hero is a person who is held in high regard or glorified for his or her bravery, accomplishments or dignified values. In my opinion, both Don Quixote and King Arthur are indeed heroes, since they are corageous noblemen who achieve significant successful acts. First, Don Quixote is a poor horseman who believes himself to be an aristocratic knight. Motivated by an honorable willingness to do good deeds, he looks for helping the unfortunate and those who are in trouble. Thus, he engages in a number of entertaining misadventures.
On the other hand, King Arthur is a legendary character who fights Saxons invaders. As a result, he helps to establish the British Empire. He also encourages knighthood, so in his Round Table he only accepts brave, reputable noblemen who love their country and respect everyone. For all these reasons I think both Don Quixote and King Arthur are heroes who represent the ideal gentlemen. They are distinguished men of noble birth, willing to perform fair achievements to do justice.

Explanation:
In Chinua Achebe's novel 'Things Fall Apart", the story revolves around the Igbo culture in Africa, specifically on the character of Okonkwo. The story deals with themes of culture, tradition, Christianity, conformity, etc.
In Chapter 3, we see that Okonkwo's father Unoka went to the Oracle to consult why his crops failed even though he made sacrifices. It was then that he was told his crops failed despite his sacrifices because he was lazy and had planted on a wasted land.
Okonkwo's prosperity was a result of his desire to be unlike his lazy father. He did not want to be deemed alike to his father and thus, went to the wealthy Nwakibie to ask for 400 yam seeds.
In Igbo culture, yam was considered to be the king of the crops. It was assumed that a man who can feed yam to his family the whole year is a man who has succeeded and is hardworking.
