What was Spain's response to the Reformation? (Hint: Spain rejected the ideas of the Reformation. What did Spain do to combat these ideas?)

Answer and Explanation:

Hello. I believe you are referring to Protestant reform. If that is the case I hope the answer below can help you.

Spain did not accept the Protestant reform and considered this as a strong heresy that should be fought not only in Spain, but throughout the world. The king of Spain, Philip invested an immense amount of money in the Spanish Inquisition, which started to be financed by the monarchy to combat any sign of Protestantism and to condemn anyone who converted to it.

In addition, Philip invested in campaigns to conquer territories, as he wanted the entire world to be under the dominion of Spain, which would compel them to be Catholic.

the correct answer is "c": the pillars proclaimed his regret at the bloodshed at the battle of kalinga and his conversion to buddhism.

the kalinga war is considered as one of the largest battles in the history of india. it was fought between the between the maurya empire, which ruled the lands of what is now known as india at the time, and the independent feudal kingdom of kalinga.

the army of maurya empire, led by its king ashoka, fought a prolonged war against kalinga. the war ended around 262 bce with the victory of the maurya empire. it is believed that ashoka, after having witnessed the loss of many lives during this war, felt deep responsibility and eventually converted into buddhism.
