Best Answer

The massive Inca Empire was toppled by around 130 Spanish warriors or conquestadors. When this small group of Spaniards met with the Incan emperor, they attacked everyone in sight and kidnapped the emperor, who was believed by his people to be a living god. The natives had never scene a horse or a white man before the Spanish arrived and were not prepared for the Europeans advanced weapon, horses, or diseases. Within months of the emperors abduction, small pox plagued the native people. Their population was devistated. The Spanish spent the next few hundred years taking gold from South America and sending it back to Spain, the dominent superpower of the era.
