Learn how downfall came at the hands of the Spanish conquerors, who came with guns and steel and plague. Like the meteor that killed the dinosaurs, the invaders were an extinction-level event that the Inca had no way of preparing for. See how unmatched they were in strategy, technology, and how their far superior numbers meant nothing in the end. Learn what remains of their great civilization, what influence they had over the following course of history and See how they even had an effect on the soda you drink...Inside you will find:How an empire grew from such humble, and hostile, beginningsThe geographic location of the EmpireThe incredible natural odds the Incan people overcameSociety, government, and other everyday practicesAn in-depth look at the Incan godsThe terrible Civil WarThe ConquistadorsAnd more…So click ‘Add to Cart’ and begin your journey into the past.
