I have never been able to put any credibility on
converting-the-heathen fanatics.
Perhaps some (if not all) of the sainted propagators of the
fanatic faiths never realised the close connection between what
they were doing and what their civil rulers had in mind in the
way of empire building.
So far, haven't found any such connection with Buddhist
propagation, at least in the Pali record, such as it is.

that's truth. Llull wrote many times about one anecdote to defend
his strange artifacts. He visited the Sultan of Tunisia to
convert him, and the Sultan asked him why he had to change his
religion only by faith. He asked Llull some arguments by using
the Reason. He told to Llull a famous phrase:

"¿Credere pro credere? Credere pro vero intelligere".

With these frequent obstacles, Llull was obsessed to build a
perfect logical system to convert Muslims.
