History
When Amana was united under one monarchy, the Royal Armory was formed. It was made up of soldiers from the three former armies of the nations that combined. Its purpose was to protect the people from crisis and corruption. Because it was no longer a typical military organization they wanted a new way to vett recruits. Thus, the squire program was created.
Cultural Significance
Squires aren't looked down on, nor are they considered servants. They are respected as knight hopefuls trying to help people. People will often be quite supportive of squires, offering them advice and aid in an effort to assist their training.
