You people really don't understand the concept of taxing in Islamic or semi Islamic empires. You all think Christians were taxes JUST because they were Christians. It's wrong.
Christians were taxed because they were not conscripted , they weren't in the army so they had to pay some money but if the Empire accepts Christians as soldiers and conscripts them , Christians of that Empire does not pay additional taxes ( For example late Ottoman Empire , mainly after the abolishment of Timariot System )
