I know about so many asian martial arts, because that primaraly where martial arts typicaly originated from, and in old time, n most asian countries, there were martial arts like Kung Fu and Kenjutsu that taught how to use a sword, just like hand-to-hand cobat martial ways. But in europe, during mediviel and napoleon times, you know, up until guns were used officially in battle, how did people like knights and even revolutionary war soilders learn to use swords? For example, Samurai learn Kenjutsu, a long martial art that teaches how to use a katana, and Kung Fu the same with swords and sabres, but what about europeans in old times, i know that there really weren't any hand-to-hand martial arts in europe, but how did they learn swordsmanship? Sme kind of martial art? Are there even any European martial art, i know there are African martial arts, but what about such an advanced culture such as europes?
