Pre-modern supremacism

Pre-modern supremacism involved ideas such as militant behavior as an excluder from dominant accepted manhood. It involved duels as a way of deciding a superior position.
A duel is an arranged engagement in combat between two people, with matched weapons, in accordance with agreed-upon rules. Duels in this form were chiefly practised in early modern Europe with precedents in the medieval code of chivalry, and continued into the modern period (18th to late 19th centuries, if not beyond) especially among military officers. 
Supremacism was a highly esteem part of ancient and medieval life (although less so, increasingly, in some ways, in the Christian era).
