Saat beraktivitas di kawasan itu dua bangsa ini tidak hanya berdagang namun juga menyebarkan agama yang mereka anut yaitu Kristen Katolik. Melalui telaah pustaka dari berbagai sumber, diperoleh kesimpulan tentang penyebaran agama Katolik yang dilakukan Portugis dan Spanyol di tengah usaha mereka memonopoli perdagangan cengkeh di Maluku Utara. Pada akhirnya,  penyebaran agama Katolik yang dilakukan Portugis dan Spanyol hanya memperkuat kebencian para penguasa lokal terhadap mereka dan berakibat terusirnya kedua bangsa imperialis ini dari Maluku Utara.
