Best Answer

Your question makes no sense. What period in history are you asking about?

You used the tags "US History," "Incas," and "Aztecs," but Spanish conquerors defeated the Incas and Aztecs more than 250 years before the United States was founded.

You should also explain what you mean by "holdings."
