The Inca Empire Explained in 11 Minutes

[@macuare]

Incas are super underrated. They have such an interesting history except nobody even cares to learn just a single bit. It’s very sad that the ability to read quipu, imagine how much we could’ve learned if the language could be understood.

[@incachannel]

Sin embargo hubieron otras culturas tan interesantes en Perú como la de los Incas. Los Mochica por ejemplo.

[@a81758]

I'm sure they were responsible for many innovative things but for their child sacrifice I'm just not that interested in them. I'm only here because of the frozen mummy inca girl. So I'm curious but not deeply interested.

[@matthewmoua8494]

The Spaniards were advanced and it certainly helped on their conquests, but you neglected the number of Indian auxiliaries that were used by the conquistadors. It wasn’t only just 168 men, but thousands of indigenous troops as well.

[@censorriley244]

School answers for my test at least- Incas represents wealth, a vast empire, and Machu Picchu. Connected by a system of roads. It was the largest empire in the world. Astronomers predicted the end of their people. 3 prongs were Diplomacy, Fortifications, and logistics. Road of Inca was a road that went from Quito to Chile connecting everything in between. Quechua is still spoken by 8 million people.

[@Geopoliticus]

Fascinating. Would really love to know more about how road-building helped consolidate the Inca Empire.

[@viracocha6093]

Two of the many reasons the roads helped the Incas so well were because of how they helped messengers pass between relay stations to send messages, and to easily let moving laborers performing their mit’a service go from place to place as needed.

[@macuare]

Huitzilopochtli were the messengers called Chasquis?

[@germanss4311]

@@macuare Yes, at least that's what Peruvians learn in school.

They were wise enough to leverage the long network of roads already built hundreds of years earlier by the Moche people (at least the northern coast part of Peru). The Moche has their messengers called Izhaki Izacaero. Izhaki is where the quechua word Chazki comes from. Both mean 'messenger'.

[@L.P.1987]

@ ??? ¿Caminos mochicas? Aparte de los supuestamente encontrados en el Cerro Campana, todos los caminos del norte peruano son incas y chimúes.

[@rodrigochiberioseixas193]

The videos is generally good, but many times, you guys uses Aztec and Maias pictures, while talking about the incas in the moment. Like 4:27 for example. Again, the video and the content is very good, congratulations. Take this like a constructive criticism, to improve the already good quality of the videos.

This story telling is one of most unempathetic I have seen and at many spots wrong. This conquest was Spanish crown subsidized and repeated colonial-driven genocide. More than 8 million people died of disease, warring actions, and lack of governance in the void. This against a population exhibiting no provocation But as conquerers understand, winning the battles and governing are two very different skills

[@wilmermejiacarrion5028]

In fact, what you say it is not right. First, the conquest of America was not subsidized for spanish crown. Every "conquistador" pay of his own money the trip and weapons. The spanish crown just give permissions. Second, we cannot apply the word "genocide", people die, effectively but most of the time for epidemic diseases. Indeed, the US goverment made real genocide to indigenous peoples in 19th century. and third, There were abuses and violence by the Spanish but this also occurred within the framework of a series of alliances between the Spanish and the ethnic groups subjected by the Incas. Many of the kings of these allied ethnic groups had titles of nobility and wealth.

On Brazil's coast were the Tupi, who are also interesting to learn about. & lastly there was the Guaraní, I learned about their legend of Iguaçu falls, a very cool story, they were near the Tupi & lived in Paraguay as well.
