Question

What was huayna capacs greatest contribution to the inca empire

Answer 1

Huayna Capac built two important Inca roads from Tumbez to Pachacamac and the other from Pachacamac to Cusco.

Step-by-step explanation:

Huyana Capac was a prodigious combatant of Inca Empire and he extended his empire. He built his capital city in Quito.

He made some developments by building two important roads and many small houses were built for the messengers of Inca Empire and it was called Coptras. He died out of small pox. His body was brought to Cusco and his heart was in Quito.

Before his death, he made grave mistake of allocating the empire between his brothers and this brought up many civil wars and thus Inca Empire faced the downfall.

Answer 2

Wayna Qhapaq means "young king". He was the eleventh Inca of Tahuantinsuyo, name that received the territory of the Inca empire.

He ruled between 1493 and 1525. As a ruler, he dedicated many efforts to consolidate the lands conquered by his father and quell the revolts of provinces that did not want to join the empire.

Wayna Qhapaq took the Inca empire to its maximum extent, conquering territories near the current cities of Cajamarca and Quito (Ecuador). The Inca empire integrated lands from Pasto (Southern Colombia) to the Maule River (Chile). While in charge, the Incas lived a period of good living and peace.

Huayna Cápac died in Quito because of smallpox or measles, diseases that came from Europe with the Spanish invasion of the Americas.
