History

Two manuscripts in one book:

• The Inca Empire: An Enthralling Overview of the Incas, Their Civilization in Ancient Peru, and the Spanish Conquest • The Spanish Conquest of the Americas: An Enthralling Overview of the Conquistadors and Their Conquests of the Aztec and Inca Empires

In the first part of this book, you will discover:

• How the Inca civilization developed out of a number of preceding cultures in the Andes and Peruvian coast; • How quickly the Incas were able to expand and why they needed to; • How the empire was administered and how runners were able to take messages from one end of it to the other with remarkable speed; • The amazing Inca infrastructure program, which included building roads through mountain ranges and across raging rivers; • Why Inca cuisine included tasty guinea pigs and llama jerky; • Why there were never more than a few thousand actual Inca in the Inca Empire;

In the second part of this book, you will learn about:

• Columbus and his expeditions, which encouraged other Europeans to start colonization • The makeup of indigenous American societies, from their social hierarchies and complex cultures to diverse political structures • Colonization of the Caribbean islands and the establishment of the Spanish West Indies • The arrival of Hernán Cortés and his groundbreaking expedition into the Aztec Empire in modern-day Mexico • The conquest of the Maya civilization in the Yucatán Peninsula and the power dynamics between different power-hungry conquistador groups there • The magnificent Inca Empire in the South American Andes and its conquest by Francisco Pizarro
