The Rosary is associated with Catholicism as a whole. It's most famous promoters have always been the Dominicans. When St. Dominic went to preach to the Albigensian heretics in southern France, he was having no success. In despair he prayed to the Blessed Virgin Mary for help with these heretics, and she gave him the Rosary. It was during this period that he established the Order of Preachers (the Dominicans) (1215) in order to devote themselves to the conversion of heretics.
