Wow. I appreciate the efforts and the time you spent to research and write this novel for us:) You have your sources and I have my sources but I won't waste my time on that (at least for the time being, hence I am going to have my iftar soon), and also this forum is not about religion.

In short and as an example, how about the Roman Empire? What have they done to all that regions that they occupied?

If Christians were forced to convert to Islam as per your understanding and per your literature which you are using, then they and their next generations wouldn't have stayed Muslims and would have converted back.

Nobody can force religion and beliefs. If someone force you to consider yourself monkey and act as a monkey, would you and your children jump between trees for ever?:)

We should not always refer to media and literature. Sometimes we better use logic, and our instincts and minds.
