Because they wanted gold and land
The Europeans, specifically the Spanish conquistadors, invaded the Incas for several reasons. One of the main motivations was the desire for wealth, particularly the abundance of gold and silver in Inca territory. Additionally, religious and imperialistic reasons played a role, as the Europeans sought to spread Christianity and expand their empires through colonization. Finally, the advanced military technology and tactics of the Spanish gave them a significant advantage over the Inca empire.
The Spanish invaded the Incas in search of wealth, resources, and to spread Christianity. They were also driven by a desire for power and control over the indigenous people of the region. The arrival of the Spanish ultimately led to the downfall of the Inca Empire.
No, the Incas did not discover rubber. Rubber was actually used by indigenous cultures in Mesoamerica, like the Aztecs and Mayans, long before the Inca civilization. The Inca Empire was located in the Andes region of South America and did not have access to rubber trees.
European settlement impacted the Incas and Aztecs by introducing diseases, such as smallpox, that decimated their populations. Additionally, European conquest led to the disruption of their societies, dismantling their political systems and eroding their economies through forced labor and exploitation. Ultimately, these factors contributed to the collapse of the Inca and Aztec civilizations.
The Spanish invaded the Inca Empire primarily for their desire for wealth and resources, such as gold and silver. They also sought to spread Christianity and convert the indigenous people to Catholicism. Additionally, the Spanish were driven by a sense of imperial ambition and the pursuit of glory, expanding their empire and establishing control over new territories.
The plural of Inca is Incas. "Incans" is not the correct plural form.

Disease. Many Diseases common in Europe did not yet exist in the new world and the Incas had no bodily defense against them.
