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.
