Was there anything similar to Crusader States in religions other than Christianity? When I say Crusader State, I of course mean an independent theocratic order or government whose role is to either protect their religion or fight heretics in the name of their religion.
If there isn't any, is it plausible to somehow get them created? Islamic orders forming jihadist states near Christian lands? Militaristic Buddhist orders in the Himalayas fighting a religious war against Hindu and/or Muslim India? A Jewish state that fights a crusade to liberate Jerusalem?
I know that in many cases it wouldn't work due to the beliefs of a religon and the reasons that crusader states are created aren't relevant in many of these situations, but is it possible to see non christian crusaders states or at least something similar?
