Morisco: Community, Religion & Demographics

Moriscos (Spanish: , Catalan: ; Portuguese: mouriscos ; "Moorish") were former Muslims and their descendants whom the Catholic Church and Habsburg Spain commanded to forcibly convert to Christianity or face compulsory exile after Spain outlawed Islam. Spain had a sizeable Muslim population, the mudéjars, in the early 16th century.
