In Mexico, the Aztec; in Peru, the Inca
The word "Inca" originally referred to the Sapa Inca, the emperor and leader of the Inca Empire, which was a vast civilization in South America. Over time, the term has come to be used to describe the entire culture, society, and people of the Inca civilization, which thrived in the Andes Mountains from the early 15th century until the Spanish conquest in the 16th century. Therefore, calling all of them "Inca" reflects their shared cultural identity and heritage under the rule of the Sapa Inca.
Spain conquered the Inca and Aztec Empires. By the time of European arrival, the Mayan civilization had imploded four centuries prior.
The Inca civilization existed after the Aztec civilization. The Aztecs rose to prominence in the early 14th century, reaching their height in the early 16th century, while the Inca Empire began to expand significantly in the early 15th century and reached its peak around the same time as the Aztecs, shortly before the Spanish conquest in the 1530s. Thus, both civilizations coexisted for a brief period, with the Aztecs being established earlier.
The Spaniards led to the decline of the Inca civilization. The Spaniards took Atahualpa (ruler at the time,) hostage and killed his brother Huascar. Then they installed a new leader Atahualpa's brother, Manco Inca. He eventually passed on the throne to his son Tupac Amaru. When the Spaniards captured and executed him, the Inca's resistance to the Spaniards ended.
Some powerful empires that existed around at the same time were the Aztec and Inca Empires. However, the Inca Empire was much larger.
Pizarro sought to find the Inca civilization in order to conquer and exploit their wealth, resources, and territory for the benefit of the Spanish Empire. He was driven by the desire for power, wealth, and glory that came with expanding Spanish influence in the New World.
The Aztec and Maya empires were powerful around the same time as the Inca.
