1 1478 - Tribunal of the Holy Office of the Inquisition established in Spain. 2  King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile wanted Spain to be entirely Catholic. 3  1492 - Edict of Expulsion ordered Jews to convert or leave. 4  Muslim converts were called Moriscos.arvajal's family was among the estimated one-third of Spanish Jews who converted to Catholicism to escape the Inquisition's clutches.
