That... no. In regards to the Inquisition, it was the rooting out of heretics (basically anyone not Catholic or who didn't agree with everything the church said), and saw the most action between the reigns of Isabela of Castile and Ferdinand of Aragon, and Philip II. It wasn't weird, it was torture and execution on religious grounds. Spain was a heavily Catholic nation, and, to a point, still is. Whilst they obviously aren't killing people anymore, they've always been one of the most Catholic places outside of the Vatican. It isn't weird, just horrid.
Regarding carlism... haha, no. Spanish speaking nations will often name their political movements/ideologies after the founder. In this case, Carlism (Carlismo, which is where our word for it comes from), was "aimed at establishing an alternate branch of the Bourbon Dynasty under Don Carlos" (Wikipedia). It's the same naming process as Francoism, Stalinism, or any other such movement.
I guess people who don't know what it means might spell it karlism. That doesn't make them dumb, it's just something to bring to their attention, that it comes from Don Carlos and is thus spelled with a "C."

Alright, language time
So, the suffix "burg" (also spelled bourg or berg), found in French, German, and Luxembourgish, means "fort" or "walled city/town/village." Ex. Hamburg, Johannesburg, Luxembourg, etc.
Russia has a similar such suffix: "grad." Grad means the same as "burg," and is found in places like Russia and Ukraine. Ex. Kaliningrad, Petrograd (St. Petersburg), Stalingrad, etc.
I believe Polish has a similar suffix. "Wiec." Several towns end in this suffix, namely Osowiec, a fortress, Królewiec (Königsberg/Kaliningrad), and Sosnowiec, to name a few. After some research, I determined that "wiec" stems from the Polish "wies," meaning village. Thus, "wiec" is the Polish equivalent to "burg/bourg/berg" and "grad."

Best crossover ever
A hand reached out of the abyssal ceiling and caught the tin and crushed it. It was a dark purplish-black color, and looked almost alien. It had clawed fingertips and small spike-looking things on it's wrist. "How stupid to you think I am girl?" He did sound a little angry. "Do you think throwing things at me is going to change anything?" He dropped the tin and the arm disappeared. Mara's eyes popped open. "AH! What the @#$%?!" She was caught off guard. " She looked around frantically for something to grab. "Ichika, try and walk to me!" She said. Ichika felt something grab her leg. "Ah ah ah, no cheating." This creature was starting to get more annoying than anything else.
