Episode 1874
At the end of the 15th century, Spain had almost completed the Reconquista and the removal of the Caliphate in the Iberian Peninsula, ending centuries of Islamic rule.
One of the first things they did was usher in an attempt to unify and purify the country as a Catholic one, rather than a multi-religious one.
After receiving permission from the Pope, the Spanish monarchy persecuted hundreds of thousands of people for the crime of not being Catholic.
Learn about why the Spanish Inquisition occurred and common misconceptions surrounding the event on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
