How did Inca government unite its empire in the Andes Mountains?

The Inca were able to control their empire through subordination and cooperation. They divided and conquered the people living there and then would move them, after conquering, to another place. This was a great form of control when the conquered people didn't have the "home terf" advantage. Each area of land had a local ruler or, curacas, and were allowed to maintain their positions and were given privileges in return for their loyalty to the Inca. Their series of roads and, tambos- or inns- allowed rapid communication and troop movement, thus allowing the Inca empire to be constantly united.


What social classes existed in Inca society?

It is unclear from the archaeological record to what extent they had classes. Some locations appear to have been dominated by a religious caste or class. there were clearly leaders and there were different trades. To what extent this was like a class system with movement between them forbidden by custom, is unknown. They are no signs of hereditary rulers with much more wealth or different living quarters than others. The exception to this is the idea that the Chaco are might have been largely a supported religious caste. The examples of the modern and historic Pueblo people who are their descendants show not much in the way of social class. Society and power tends to be divided into clans and religious kiva societies. Certainly there is no evidence like the highly stratified societies in the Pacific Northwest with commoners, nobles, and slavery and elaborate displays of wealth.
