The Spanish inquisition was established in 1478. It was introduced by Isabella I of Castile and the Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand II of Aragon. It was to maintain the Catholic orthodoxy in the kingdom and for replacing the Medieval Inquisition that was under the Papal control.


Who had more control over the spanish inquisition the pope or the king?

The Spanish Inquisition was primarily under the control of the Spanish monarchy, specifically King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Queen Isabella I of Castile, who established it in 1478. While the Pope had some influence, particularly in granting the initial authority to the Inquisition, the Spanish monarchs maintained significant autonomy and used the institution to consolidate power, enforce religious uniformity, and strengthen their rule. Thus, the kings had more practical control over the Inquisition than the Pope.


Which was a resilt of the spanish inquisition?

One significant result of the Spanish Inquisition was the establishment of religious uniformity in Spain, as it targeted conversos (converted Jews) and Muslims, leading to widespread persecution and forced conversions. This created an atmosphere of fear and suspicion, contributing to the decline of intellectual and cultural diversity. Additionally, the Inquisition reinforced the power of the Catholic Church and the monarchy, consolidating their authority and control over Spanish society.
