The Inca Empire was conquered by Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro in the early 1530s. Pizarro capitalized on internal strife within the Inca Empire, particularly the civil war between rival factions led by Atahualpa and Huáscar. After capturing Atahualpa during a surprise attack, Pizarro executed him, which significantly weakened Inca resistance and facilitated the Spanish takeover. The conquest was marked by brutal violence and exploitation of the indigenous population.
