How was the Reconquista related to the Spanish Inquisition?

The Reconquista ended Muslim rule in much of Spain and strengthened the Christian kingdoms that united as Spain. The rulers then sought religious unity by pressuring people to become Catholic or conform to Catholic beliefs. The Spanish Inquisition was used to investigate and punish people suspected of not doing so, so the best answer is “The rulers of Spain wanted people to follow a single religion.”
