Secret and Pomp
At the start of the Inquisition, the envoys of the Catholic Church still acted independently of one another in the territories to which the Pope had appointed them. Towards the end of the 15th century, this changed: Spain, Portugal and Italy established centralised and hierarchically organised administrative structures. And the list of people persecuted grew ever longer.
