Yes, the Incas did fight back when Francisco Pizarro and his Spanish forces attacked. Led by their emperor, Atahualpa, the Incas initially resisted the Spanish invaders, engaging in battles such as the skirmish at Cajamarca. However, they were ultimately outmatched due to the Spanish's superior weaponry, tactics, and the impact of disease on the Inca population. The combination of these factors led to the swift downfall of the Inca Empire.

How did pizzaro kill the will of the Inca?

Francisco Pizarro effectively shattered the will of the Inca by capturing their leader, Atahualpa, during the Battle of Cajamarca in 1532. Following his capture, Pizarro demanded a large ransom in gold and silver, which the Incas paid, but he ultimately executed Atahualpa anyway. This act not only eliminated their central leadership but also instilled fear and confusion among the Inca people, leading to a rapid decline in resistance against the Spanish conquest. The combination of military tactics, psychological warfare, and ruthless betrayal dismantled the Inca's resolve to fight back.

How were the Spanish able to conquer the Incas and Aztec empires?

Cortez was thought to be a returned emperor from the Aztec past that promised to come back one day and return to his thrown. With this belief the Aztecs didn't put up as much of a fight as they otherwise would have. Cortez also received support from other neighboring tribes. Later Conquistadors defeated the Inca by tricking their emperor into a special banquet where they ambushed him. After the ambush the other Inca having seen their leader seized actually gave up the fight. They used the emperor by making him give orders to his people.
