When Henry of Navarre became Henry the sixth he?
Henry IV established a four year battle with the Catholic League because he felt that it was important for him to not give up his Calvinist faith. He guaranteed religious liberties by the end of the religious war.
Under Philip II, the Islamic threat was stopped from sacking Rome and likely enslaving much more of Europe.
The leaders of the Protestant revolt, the debt-ridden, indulgent princes and aristocracy, would have sacrificed Europe to Islam, believing it was better to be ruled by them than by the "anti-Christ Pope and his church.
Without Philip II and his severe devotion to what he understood to be defending the Right, world history would have been very different. Europe could easily have been over-run by either Islamics or Protestants and the churches, culture, art and music, as well as the teachings of the Saints and religious thought developed over many centuries would have been erased, as both Islamics and Protestants despised all of it.
Unfortunately, it was not possible to deal with all these threats with only the economic base of Spain, even given the precious metals of New Spain. The usury sapped the people greatly.

What were the Jews in Spain required to do in 1492?
The Spanish Inquisition was intended to identify, and remove, those "conversos" who were fake Catholics.
After the Catholics defeated the last Muslim strong-hold (Grenada), the Church in Spain instituted the Spanish Inquisition to root-out all persons merely pretending to be Catholics for whatever personal, political power or financial reason that was the root-cause of their pretending, dishonestly, to be Catholic.
In fact, the Jews in Spain appealed to the pope at that time to intervene. Pope did -- told the Church in Spain to cease and desist. Church in Spain refused to obey which is similar to what still occurs today.
WHAT SPECIFICALLY DID THE JEWS HAVE TO DO WITH THE SPANISH INQUISITION?
Nothing. They were mistreated victims by the majority of Spaniards (Catholics) who pretty much wanted everyone -- who was not a Catholic -- out of Spain. After hundreds of years of Muslim rule, and finally defeating the Muslims, the Spanish Catholics trusted no one -- including Jews.
In fact, after the final liberation of Spain, Protestant Christians also tried to come to Spain and convert Catholics. They too were not permitted in Spain. This was the time of the Reformation elsewhere in Europe.
Spanish Inquisition was wrong. In hindsight, it was also understandable.
España is the Spanish name for Spain. It is a country in the southwest corner of Europe.
