I think that they were more similar to each other than different. While they did have their differences, it seems like they have a lot of similarities. Even though their people/positions had different names, they have a lot of elements that are the same, like the knights'/samurais' codes of honor. They also have a lot of other similarities between the positions and deals.

I disagree because while they did have a good amount of similarities, they had more differences. For example the peasants were put higher on the chart then the rich.

I agree that they are very similar because of the fact that they made it to hep each other. Also it was like they told each other about it which is crazy.

I agree with you Tiffany. I think that they were more alike than different. They both had Feudalism and they both have a knight/samurai code of honor.

I agree with Tiffany because they do have a lot of similarities including the knights and samurais code of honor.Also,including the positions and deals because each of the societies gave land or food or protection to one another.

I think they were more different because the king had more power in Europe and in Japan the emperor was the king, but h had almost no power. That and the peasants were had more power than the rich. Yes they were also similar in the way of samurai and knights, but that is king of the only really big similarity.

I agree with you Brandon, the warriors prove similar. The roles they play are the most similar between both I think. Though they have differences, similarities cancel out and beat the differences.

I think they are more similar than different. The samurai and knights had codes. Bushido and Chivalry have many similarities, besides the way to treat a lady and other things. There were landowners who also gave out lands to a lower class. There are people in classes that are like provide in goods and a provide of help relation in both. There was a class that put faith of help in the warrior class. There are other similarities, but either I haven't learned it, or I have, or I don't have the time.

I agree with Matthew L. because bushido and chivalry were almost exactly the same except for different warriors. Also the lords were the same but with different roles.

I believe that Japanese and European feudal societies were very similar because they both were designed to protect towns from attacks better than before. The only main difference is that kings in Europe had more power than emperors in Japan who had virtually no power. A very tiny difference was peasants had less power in Europe than in Japan.

I agree with you Nathan. They were both designed to protect their cities more, but you could tell a major difference in the leader or person in charge with the leadership.

There are definitely similarities and differences in each of the feudal societies but in my opinion they are more similar. They were both based on land and duty, both had warriors & lords, and both had a code of honor. One of the major differences is the role of the leader. And if you think the leader is important in this system, then maybe you might think these systems are more different than similar.

You hit the head on the nail Mr. Kaciuba! Although, the code of honor for the knights was called Chivalry, while the code of honor for a samurai was called Bushido. That is one really good response Mr. Kaciuba.

They have differences but they are really similar. Knights and Samuri each have a code of honor. There is different roles in different spots and there is some roles outside of the entire system.

I think that the Japanese and European societies had more similarities. They both focused on land and duty, along with the code of honor such as chivalry and bushido. The major difference was the person with the major role or the leader. These were very different, but were mostly similar to each other.

Their were more similarities than differences because they all had social classes. They had codes of honor. Finally the knights and samurais were identical by both being the base warriors, but just in different time periods.

I believe they were almost the same. The only difference was that they were in different time periods and had different names. Because of the fact that the word samurai literally means "servant", they had to serve their lord. They received land as a payment for food. Just like in the Middle Ages, the vassal had to serve his lord. They had to give their lord food and shelter when needed, and money on special occasions. Overall, I think European and Japanese feudal societies were very similar.

I think that the to systems had more similarities than differences. They were mostly both based off of wealthy and the duty you had. The main difference I can think of would be that, peasants in Europe were at the bottom, where in Japan, the feudalism system had them above merchants.

David I agree they were both similar, but they were also different. For example, with your example about the codes, both codes had different morals. That is why I say they are both different and similar.

I believe that European and Japanese feudal societies have more similarities than differences.Why?well,because of the Warriors and Knights both following the code of honor.Also,the system helping each other out but,there is also a kind of a big difference in the rulers also known who is at the top of the pyramid in feudalism in Japan the Emperor is at the top of the pyramid but not in it,his name maybe emperor but he is not really known by his citizens at all.In feudalism in Europe the king is at the top and he is in the pyramid and also he does rule very well and is known by all of his citizens.

I think the societies were more similar to each other. Besides the names the roles of the people were pretty much the same. They both had a code of honor both followed. The names were different bushido and chivalry but the basis is to lead a honorable life.

I think European and Japanese feudal systems were more similar. Both knight and samurais had honour codes. Also, kights and samurais served someone. Finally both systems had samurais and knights pledge loyalty to their lord or daimyo.

Although I think that the two cultures Feudal system is extremely alike I also think that every culture's feudal system was somewhat like this. The King was always somewhat at the top, peasants were always at the bottom, and owners of land were always near the top. So a lot of Feudal systems were alike.
