The Incas lost to the Spaniards primarily due to a combination of superior military technology, particularly firearms and steel weapons, and the devastating impact of European diseases like smallpox, which decimated their population. Additionally, the Spaniards exploited existing rivalries among indigenous groups, forming alliances that weakened Inca resistance. The capture and execution of their leader, Atahualpa, further demoralized the Incan forces, leading to their eventual defeat.
