Among other things, the church did away with slavery, infanticide, the stadium games where humans and animals fought for the entertainment value.“ Spanish Inquisition Tribunal of the Holy Office of the Inquisition (Spanish: Tribunal del Santo Oficio de la Inquisición), commonly known as the Spanish Inquisition (Inquisición española), was established in 1478 by Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile . It was intended to maintain Catholic orthodoxy in their kingdoms and to replace the Medieval Inquisition , which was under Papal control . It became the most substantive of the three different manifestations of the wider Catholic Inquisition along with the Roman Inquisition and Portuguese Inquisition . The "Spanish Inquisition" may be defined broadly, operating in Spain and in all Spanish colonies and territories, which included the Canary Islands , the Kingdom of Naples , and all Spanish possessions in North, Central, and South America.
