Knights

Japanese: 騎士党 - きしとう
Knights
The name was given to supporters of the King during the Puritan Revolution in England. It was named after the fact that many of them were nobles of the rank of knight or higher. They were supported by Catholics as well as Anglicans, and their support base was in the north and west, but they were defeated in the civil war. They returned to power with the restoration of the monarchy in 1660, and the following year they held a majority in Parliament, so they were called the "Knightly Parliament."
