The Incas

1438 – 1533

The Inca Empire, located in the Andes of South America, was renowned for its impressive architecture, including the iconic site of Machu Picchu. The Incas built a vast network of roads and terraces and developed a sophisticated society with advanced knowledge in engineering and agriculture. Their empire fell to Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century, but their legacy remains a significant part of Andean culture.
