Last time I looked, the Catholic Church had not been destroyed. It still has a pope, 5000 bishops and a billion people.
No, except for those who promote and aid in the mission of Satan to destroy the Church.
The Holy Inquisition helped the Catholic Church by protecting her from her enemies that wanted nothing more than to destroy her. However, it was not established by the Church but by the Spanish Government.
Potato Famine of the 1840s. Rise in Irish Nationalism. Rise in Power of the Catholic Church. Catholic emancipation in the 1820s.
Nationalism in the Renaissance had a significant impact on the church. As countries sought to establish their own identities, they began to challenge the authority of the Roman Catholic Church and elevate their own national churches. This led to conflicts and tensions between the church and the emerging nation-states, ultimately contributing to the Protestant Reformation and the subsequent splintering of Christianity.

Pope Pius IX responded with the Allocution in 1848.Where previously he may have appeared to be fairly liberal and reforming he then denounced any Catholic involvement in the expulsion of Austria or any form of nationalism. Seeing as the growth of nationalism would have resulted in regional leaders being overthrown he would not support it. The Allocution stated that because rulers had been given their position by God it was not justifiable to overthrow them.The Pope also excommunicated anyone involved with Mazzini's Roman Republic of February 1849. The papacy and the Catholic church became very anti-nationalism. This simply reflected the general feeling in Europe at the time that nationalism was a bad thing. It all sprouted from the French revolution and the rise of Napoleon.
The pope is the head of the Catholic Church. There is only one Catholic Church and it is not a sect. To be a Catholic Church, a church must be in union with the pope. If they are not in union with the pope, they are not Catholic.
No, a Catholic should not receive communion in anything but a Catholic Church.
