The correct option is D

Francisco Pizarro González was a Spanish conqueror who, at the beginning of the 16th century, led the expedition that would begin the Conquest of Peru. Later it would be named governor of New Castile, with seat of government in the City of the Kings. He is remembered for having managed to impose himself on the Inca Empire with the help of various local cacicazgos, conquering the aforementioned imperial state whose center of government was located in present-day Peru, as well as establishing a Spanish dependency on him.

The only correct pairing in terms of a Conquistador correctly matched with the culture he conquered would be "Pizarro:Incas," since this was his primary territory for conquest.
