Самураї (samurai) refers to the military nobility and officer caste of medieval and early modern Japan. Historically, they served as warriors, adhering to a code of conduct known as bushido, which emphasised virtues such as loyalty, honour, and martial skill. Samurai were often associated with the feudal system and played a significant role in the political and social hierarchy of Japan, particularly during the Edo period (1603-1868). They are commonly depicted in popular culture as skilled sword fighters, dressed in distinctive armour and carrying katana swords. The term “samurai” itself means “to serve” in Japanese, reflecting their role as servants to their lords. With the Meiji Restoration in the late 19th century, the samurai class was abolished, but their legacy endures in various aspects of Japanese culture and history.
