There is a long tradition of governments or religions using oppressive techniques to crush opposition, particularly religious opposition. One of the most famous crackdowns, The Spanish Inquisition (which actually swept most of Europe), forced people through often brutal means to bow before the power of the Catholic church. However, this is by no means the only time such oppression has occurred.
