    For people wondering, this is a musketeer :

    The sword is only decorative, and used in last resort to defend themselves in close ranged combat.

    In that regard, they were similar to the Ottoman janissaries.
    Dumas's story is historically irrelevant and was a fiction based on an other book, Memoirs of Mister d'Artagnan, Lieutenant Captain of the first company of the King's Musketeers by Gatien de Courtilz de Sandras.

    Except that it's more likely that RDM were inspired by Duma's musketeer than the true ones.
