The Last Jew
Ranked #72 in Spain
In the year 1492, the Inquisition has all of Spain in its grip.

Many who wish to remain are intimidated by Church and Crown and become Catholics, but several hundred thousand choose to retain their religion and depart; given little time to flee, some perish even before they can escape from Spain.
