The population of the Amish is projected to be greater than the current population of the United States in 215 years if the Amish growth rate, which has held constant for more than 100 years, remains the same.

Pacifists may get in troubles with raiders during the early post-apocalypse era, but what raider doesn't want to be a king, and the king would need someone to do the work. As long as their breeding program survives the catastrophe, they would still have a chance at victory.

There was some mass murder of kids on one of their reservations years back, remember that one? The Amish forgave the killer and went and prayed with his parents, to console them. I can't see any raiders having problems with them, it will be all smiles and "what can we give you brother" "here have some more"

Their current king had sent the police to deal with that mass murderer. Their new raider king, can do the same.

In theory, there is no reason for a conflict. But waiting for God to send you a sane competent raider king, may take time.
