What did Queen Isabella have to do with the Spanish Inquistion?

Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand of Spain issued the edicts requiring all Jews and Moslems in Spain to convert, flee, or die. When too many non-Catholics converted, these rulers, among others, were worried that they might not be real Catholics and were secretly practicing their original religions. Therefore King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella created the Holy Inquisition as a tribunal to judge whether faith infractions had occurred. They gave control of the Inquisition to Torquemada and allowed him any means necessary to exact a confession. Most victims of the Inquisition were knowingly tortured in heinous ways with the permission of the Spanish Monarchy. (The Inquisition was only disbanded in the 1830s.)

I believe what you are referring to is the Spanish Inquisition.

What did the Inquisition in he Netherlands do?

Before the Dutch War of Independence (1568-1648), the Dutch were part of the Spanish Empire. The Spanish King wanted his subjects to be Catholics. Many of the Dutch were catholics, until the Reformation started (about 1500). A substantial minority became protestant and were sentenced to death because of their religion by the Spanish king. That was one of the reasons to start the War of Independence.
