Captain America, or Steve Rogers, played by Chris Evans in all the Avengers movies, is an American World War II hero who is a receiver of the Super-Soldier serum.

He is the leader of Avengers and one of the world’s mightiest heroes. Captain, popularly known as   'Cap,' carries a shield as his weapon, which is made of Vibranium.

He has also assumed the responsibility to do something whenever any danger lurks on humanity, which is when he will say his catchphrase, "Avengers assemble!"

Captain America is the most respected superhero as he is not afraid to give his life to save another person, and he will face any danger even if the threat is more prominent than he is capable of handling alone. Cap, of all, knew the true price of freedom and was willing to do what was right.

That is why he emerged as a man standing above everybody.
