Which groups did Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand of Spain target and persecute during the Spanish Inquisition?
Strictly speaking, the Spanish Inquisition was designed to persecute Christian heretics, people who were believed to be following Christianity improperly. However, most of the people accused of heresy were former Jews and Muslims who converted to Christian under threat of death. As a result, it is generally oversimplified to say that the Spanish Inquisition targeted JEWS AND MUSLIMS.
What choices did people have during the inquisition?
They didn't have a choice either you were the religion that they wanted you t be or you were held as prisoner ,executed ,or tortured till you died. the Spanish inquisition was started by king Ferdinand and queen Isabella they wanted to make sure that no other religion was being practiced besides Christianity. if you were accused of heresy (the practice of another religion) you were sentenced to die. more than two thirds of the population was killed during either the Spanish inquisition or the Portuguese inquisitions.
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.)
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.
Where did the Spanish inquisition start and end?
King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Queen Isabella I of Castile set up the Spanish Inquisition in 1478 with the approval of Pope Sixtus IV. In contrast to the previous inquisitions, it operated completely under royal authority, though staffed by secular clergy and orders, and independently of the Holy See. It operated in Spain and in all Spanish colonies and territories, which included the Canary Islands, the Spanish Netherlands, the Kingdom of Naples, and all Spanish possessions in North, Central, and South America. It targeted primarily converts from Judaism (Conversos and Marranos) and from Islam (Moriscos or secret Moors) - both groups still resided in Spain after the end of the Islamic control of Spain - who came under suspicion of either continuing to adhere to their old religion or of having fallen back into it. Somewhat later the Spanish Inquisition took an interest in Protestants of virtually any sect, notably in the Spanish Netherlands. In the Spanish possessions of the Kingdom of Sicily and the Kingdom of Naples in southern Italy, which formed part of the Spanish Crown's hereditary possessions, it also targeted Greek Orthodox Christians. The Spanish Inquisition, tied to the authority of the Spanish Crown, also examined political cases. In the Americas, King Philip II set up two tribunals (each formally titled Tribunal del Santo Oficio de la Inquisición), one in Peru and the other in Mexico. The Mexican office administered the Audiencias of Guatemala (Guatemala, Chiapas, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica), Nueva Galicia (northern and western Mexico), Mexico (central and southeastern Mexico), and the Philippines. The Peruvian Inquisition, based in Lima, administered all the Spanish territories in South America and Panama. From 1610 a new Inquisition seat established in Cartagena (Colombia) administered much of the Spanish Caribbean in addition to Panama and northern South America. The Inquisition continued to function in North America until the Mexican War of Independence (1810-1821). In South America Simón Bolívar abolished the Inquisition; in Spain itself the institution survived until 1834.
What forced conversion by christian church in Spain?
I believe what you are referring to is the Spanish Inquisition. The Inquisition was a mandate by King Ferdinand II and Queen Isabella that all citizens of Spain must convert to Catholicism, leave, or be killed. At the time, Spain had been occupied by Catholics, Jews, and Muslims. This took place from 1480 to 1834.

Ferdinand and Isabella, also known as the Catholic Monarchs, were the King and Queen of Spain who financed Christopher Columbus. (She was from Castilla; he was from Aragon.) They also "purified" Spain through the Spanish Inquisition and the Reconquista.
