The Expansion of the Inca Empire Original Information from TCI Modified by Stephanie Andrews and Stephanie Bohn

Adapting to Life in the Andes 3.1 A

Machu Picchu Ancient city of the Inca located in the Andes, in northwest Peru. It is one example among hundreds of Inca ruins. Hiram Bingham rediscovered it in 1911.

Coastal Desert of Peru

Challenges of Life in the Empire The empire was incredibly large, 2,500 miles in length. It had a variable landscape of coastal deserts, lofty Andes mountain ranges, and rain forests. The climate ranged from tropical to polar. More than six million people had to be fed each day.

Quinoa Fields

Inca Agricultural Techniques The Inca terraced the mountain sides and used guano as fertilizer. They channeled water and diverted rivers to irrigate arid areas. The Inca filled and drained marshes to produce suitable farmland. They produced corn, many varieties of potatoes, quinoa, and many other crops.

Expansion of the Inca Empire 3.1B

Pachacuti ( ) He had a vision that convinced him to use warfare to spread Inca culture. By promising peace and gifts, backed by threats, he won many battles. He forced conquered peoples to obey Inca leaders and learn Quechua. Pachacuti allowed the conquered people to keep their native language, leaders, and gods.

Topa Inca Yupanqui ( ) He was Pachacuti’s son. He ruled an enormous empire. Yupanqui used innovative techniques to collect taxes.

Huayna Capac ( ) He ruled at the high point of the Inca empire. He fathered two sons, Atahualpa and Huascar, who didn’t trust each other. Priests favored Huascar for the next leader and the Army favored Atahualpa. This led to a six year civil war. Atahualpa eventually won, but the wars weakened the Inca empire.

Inca Social and Political Organization 3.1C

Sapa Inca Sapa Inca was considered a descendant of the Sun God; He ruled by divine right. His subjects were not allowed to look him in the eye nor did he walk as a mortal. He was carried in a golden litter. He married Coya, the empress.

Nobles Capac Incas were noble by blood. They controlled land and valuable resources. Their duties included running the government, army, and priesthood. Nobles would become the governors of the f our quarters.

Used Quipu to Keep Records Quipu was a method of knotted strings of wool or cotton. This system was used to keep records of numbers of llamas, quantities, of corn, or the number of days commoners worked for the government.

Households The empire was divided into households. Every 10 households were governed by the head of one household who reported to the heads of other households. This allowed the Inca to control the economy of diverse communities and collect taxes easily.

Laws The state (empire) designated a job for everyone. All had to help with large scale Inca projects, i.e. the army or roads. In addition to working their own land, commoners worked Inca fields and contributed food and cloth to state warehouses.
