Trainees studied self-discipline, martial arts, and poetry. They were also expected to follow a guiding code of conduct called Bushido, which translates to "the way of the warrior.” Additionally, young warriors spent hours perfecting their skills in horseback riding and archery. After years of preparation, the warriors were ready for battle. In conflicts, samurai were covered head to toe.

High-ranking warriors sometimes added feathers, horns, or other decorations to their helmets. Near the end of the 1800s, the samurai lost power to the newly formed national army.
