That Muslims and Christians peacefully co-existed in Central Europe from the 15th to 19th centuries would have been quite a surprise to those who actually lived back then.
The Cossacks, Poles, Russians, Lithuanians, Tatars and Turks fought dozens of wars during this period. To be fair, these wars by no means always split up into Christian vs. Moslem groups. Often one of the Christian groups would ally with one of the Muslim groups against other Christians. In particular, the Catholic Poles vs. Orthodox Russians often had as bitter religious relations as the Christians and Muslims.
For much of this period, the Tatars raided every year or so far into Poland and Ukraine, even into Russia, in what was called “the harvest of the steppe.” These gigantic raids had the taking of slaves as the prime objective, though other plunder obviously wasn’t turned down.

Slaving was a way of life and the primary economic engine of the Tatar khanate. They were the land-based Barbary pirates of the Black Sea.
I was talking about Lithuanian-Polish Commenwealth. These wars were tactical they were not religious. They had not terrorist character. Muslims were not fighting because of religion. They were not using religious slogans. I am sorry you missed the point completely. We are not talking about a war but religious war. In that sense these communities have been living in peace in the period emphasized by me. Read please, if you can, God’s Playground by Norman Davies.
