D. The code of conduct for medieval knights describes chivalry. Chivalry was an informal, varying code of conduct developed between 1170 and 1220, associated with the medieval institution of knighthood; knights' and gentlewomen's behaviors were governed by chivalrous social codes. This code often emphasized bravery, military skill, generosity in victory, piety, and courtesy to women.
