Francisco Pizarro was a Spanish conquistador known for his role in the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire in the early 16th century. He led an expedition that resulted in the capture of the Incan emperor Atahualpa in 1532, which significantly weakened Inca resistance. Pizarro subsequently established Spanish control over Peru, founding the city of Lima in 1535, and played a crucial role in the expansion of Spanish territory in South America. His actions laid the groundwork for extensive Spanish colonization in the region.
