When Francisco Pizarro and his men arrived in the Inca Empire in 1532, they were initially welcomed by the Incas, who were unaware of their true intentions. The Inca emperor Atahualpa, curious about the Spanish, invited Pizarro to meet him in Cajamarca. However, the encounter quickly turned hostile when Pizarro's forces ambushed and captured Atahualpa, leading to the eventual downfall of the Inca Empire. This initial welcome turned into a tragic confrontation that marked the beginning of Spanish colonization in the region.
