How did the Inca originate?

Answer 1

The Inca civilization originated in the early 15th century in the Andean region of South America, particularly around the area of present-day Peru. They began as a small tribe in the Cusco Valley and gradually expanded their territory through military conquest, alliances, and diplomacy. Under the leadership of rulers like Pachacuti, the Inca developed a vast empire, known as Tawantinsuyu, which became the largest empire in pre-Columbian America. Their advanced agricultural techniques, road systems, and governance contributed to their rapid growth and influence.
