Inca civilization's exact origins are unknown.
However, by year 1500, Tawantinsuyu - Inca Empire - was
the largest and richest in pre-
Columbian America.
Incas
controlled an estimated population of twelve million people
spread over 2,500 miles (4,000 km.) along the western coast
of America, on the Andean range.

The Incas ruled a land that most of which was made up of two
parallel mountain ranges with high plateaus. Most of the land is
3,000 meters above sea level.

The Inca of Peru have long held a mystical fascination for people of

gold and silver possessed by these people was discovered, then
plundered by Spanish conquistadors.
