History The Spanish Inquisition Questions
The explorers did not have direct roles in the Spanish Inquisition. The Spanish Inquisition was primarily focused on identifying and punishing individuals who were suspected of heresy or practicing religions other than Catholicism. The explorers, on the other hand, were primarily involved in discovering new lands, establishing colonies, and expanding Spanish influence and wealth through exploration and trade. While some explorers may have been Catholic and supported the goals of the Inquisition, their main role was not directly related to the activities of the Inquisition itself.
