Huayna Capac (also known as Huayna Cápac) was a prominent Inca emperor who reigned during the early 16th century, specifically from around 1493 to 1527. He is noted for expanding the Inca Empire significantly, consolidating territories in present-day Ecuador and northern Peru. His reign was marked by military conquests and administrative reforms, but it was also a time of internal strife and challenges, particularly from the spread of diseases like smallpox. Huayna Capac's death led to a succession crisis that contributed to the eventual downfall of the Inca Empire.
