The [b]Inca Empire[/b], or [b]Inka Empire[/b] (Quechua: [i]Tawantinsuyu[/i]), was the largest empire in the pre-Columbian American Continent. The administrative, political and military center of the empire was located in Cusco in modern-day [[Peru]]. The Inca civilization arose from the highlands of Peru sometime in the early 13th century. From 1438 to 1533, the Incas used a variety of methods, from conquest to peaceful assimilation, to incorporate a large portion of western South America, centered on the Andean mountain ranges, including large parts of modern Ecuador, Peru, western and south central Bolivia, northwest Argentina, north and north-central Chile, and southern Colombia into a state comparable to the historical empires of the Old World. The empire ended in 1533 with the arrival of the European [[spain|Spaniards]], who conquered it. Updated by bot Sun, Sep 18 '22, 02:54 |
