Bretonnians

Bretonnia is a kingdom and a people found in the Warhammer Fantasy setting. They are a feudal society, heavily influenced by Arthurian legend, and their culture is built around chivalry, knights, and a strict social hierarchy. The land itself is characterized by rolling hills, verdant forests, and a generally fertile landscape, though it is also often troubled by internal strife and external threats.

The Bretonnian military is renowned for its powerful cavalry. Knights, sworn to vows of chivalry and service to their lords, form the backbone of their armies. These knights are often mounted on warhorses and clad in heavy armor, capable of delivering devastating charges. The common soldiery consists of peasant levies, who are less well-equipped but can provide a substantial fighting force when called upon. Damsels and Grail Knights also play significant roles, representing the spiritual and mystical elements of Bretonnian society.

Bretonnia faces numerous challenges. They are often at war with neighboring realms, particularly the greenskins and other greenskin factions. The influence of the Old World's dark forces also looms large, with the threat of Chaos and other malevolent entities constantly present. Despite these dangers, Bretonnians are fiercely proud and deeply religious, worshipping the Lady of the Lake and upholding their code of honor above all else. Their society is deeply divided between the nobility and the peasantry, with little social mobility.
