Facts About The Inca Empire
aYou’ve likely heard of the advanced skills of the Inca Empire. From creating a reliable system of measurement and communication to building a 25,000-mile road system, the Incas were brilliant, innovative people.
However, like many native populations, they were bested by the Spanish conquistadors when they invaded in the mid-1500s. The European conquerors stole or destroyed much of the priceless Inca art and artifacts, so we must rely on stories and legends to build the narrative of what life was like for the Incas.

Curiosity: The King of Spain has had the title of Sapa Inca since the Inca of Vilcabamba Sayri Tupac transferred the title to Charles I of Spain through Viceroy Andrés Hurtado de Mendoza on January 5, 1558.

Some scholars believe smallpox arrived in Cusco before the Spaniards did. This is thought to be why there was civil war going on when Pizarro arrived. The Inca royalty was already dying from smallpox and various potential rulers were fighting one another for power. See Alicia's comment below.

Incas and Mayans are known to have crossed paths. I find it hard to believe the Incas didn’t at the very least know of the existence of horses

Inca Empire had more gold,silver,emerelds than any political entity in history.Inca Empire didnt use human sacrifice to the level of contemporary Aztec Empire, human sacrifices are minimal in Inca Empire.

Those stupid asides really distract from the historical content of your videos. I could not even make it through this one, and I have always been interested in Native American cultures. Please, cut out the stupidity!

Incas, Aztecs, Mayans , and Toltecs are some of the most beautiful cultures / civilizations in history I wish we knew more about the Mayans and Toltecs are the most mysterious since little is known what became of them but I just wana know how they built some of the most beautiful creations like the Toltec giant heads and Mayan pyramids

It's been a while since I watched a new WH video. I knew I would be in for a laugh. I was right. Oh, for a video suggestion, I'd maybe make a challenge for WH, maybe you guys should do an ancient Philippine history. It's not really that well-known, but given that the Philippines has been an interest for major powers since ancient times up to today, it might be worth a shot.
