A.Code of Conduct In many societies in which a specialize warrior class exist, specific codes of conducts are established in order to ensure that warrior class is not corrupt or dangerous to the rest of society…(in other words…they won’t run amuck)and to distinguish a form of honor for the Country or Ruler that they represented.
