Lets be real. The conversion of kings was in nearly all cases political from the original conversion to Catholicism and later to Lutheranism. We are talking about a period where opposing the church was a good way to lose your kingdom and end up sadistically murdered. Conversion by coersion or violence is not exactly impressive.
@Carazaa I will grant you my ancestors invaded southern France before they converted but that hardly changed after conversion. If anything it just changed the justification for invasions.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Maybe for France, not Scandinavia!
@Carazaa And now we have the No True Scotsman fallacy. 🤦‍♂️
There was a thousand men
And they all had swords
And Europe all would tremble
Whenever they got bored
