The Spanish Inquisition was intensified to root out heresy and enforce religious conformity. Spain also solidified its power through the Counter-Reformation, supporting the Catholic Church's efforts to reaffirm its authority and suppress Protestantism.

During the time of the Reformation, the Inquisition was a series of institutions within the Catholic Church aimed at combating heresy. It involved the systematic interrogation, punishment, and suppression of individuals believed to be deviating from Catholic doctrine. The Inquisition was a tool used to maintain religious conformity and authority within the Church.
Galileo Galilei was the astronomer who was imprisoned by the church during the Counter-Reformation. He was tried by the Roman Inquisition in 1633 for advocating the heliocentric model of the solar system.
King Ferdinand was the king during the Spanish Inquisition.
The Inquisition was controlled by the Roman Catholic Church- there was both a Roman Inquisition, and a Spanish Variant.
During the reformation Portugal was strongly Roman Catholic. Due to the Inquisition which operated across Europe from the from the mid 1100s to mid 1800s, Portugal was under a strict watch by the Spanish Inquisition which, under the fanatical Dominican, Tomas Torquemada, was still enforcing Catholicism up until the early nineteenty century. The very zealous Jesuit Order founded in Spain, 1539 came to be a very strong influence. They became the "watch dogs" of Catholicism across Europe.
Pope Paul III brought a group of Spanish Jesuits to Rome during the Counter-Reformation. This group included prominent figures like St. Ignatius of Loyola, who went on to found the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) to combat Protestantism and spread Catholicism. They played a key role in revitalizing the Catholic Church during this period.
