Lord Buddha is not a avatar of god Vishnu. Lord Buddha is the greatest human who reached to the highest level from the mind by practicing different types of meditations and perfections from very longer period even with his previous births as well.
King Asoka was a Jain, after a very critical war when he was standing in the balcony with an impatient mind mind he saw a Nigrodha thero (A follewer of Lord Buddha) walking down the street. He asked from his constable to invite him, then the thero visits and described the teaching of Lord Buddha, King was very happy and became a Buddhist.
Then other thing is after he become a Buddhist he have done a lots of services to Buddhists and he had taken all decisions to protect other religions to follow their teachings freely. Buddhist teaching is not to harm any person, religion, animals etc.
As per my knowledge King Asoka didn't persecute any religion after he became a Buddhist. He has done great services especially for Buddhism and to other religions as well.
they didn't get persecuted for religious beliefs
because they sinned
to be persecuted is to be harassed in a tormenting manner because of race, gender, sexual orientation, or religious beliefs. in example, in civil war times, southern whites persecuted blacks.
They were persecuted because civil authority feared that religious differences and economic issues would lead to civil problems
Shinto Buddhism,Zen Buddhism,Christian but predominantly Buddhist
To an extent yes, it is true. According to Mythology lord Asoka after embracing Buddhism punishde those who committed animal slaughter and other violence acts.

Contrary to popular belief, the Puritans did not migrate because of religious persecution. They migrated to set up their own society where everyone adhered to their religious beliefs. They persecuted far more than they were persecuted against.
Yes, and are still persecuted today in some societies
Religious toleration was not practiced in Puritan communities in the 1600s. Puritans believed in a strict interpretation of Christianity and sought to create communities based on their religious beliefs. Those who did not conform to their beliefs were often persecuted or expelled from the community.
A secular society is one that separates the religious from the civics.
