2. Imagine that you are a member of Pizarro's expedition to the Incan civilization. Explain whether you would want to destroy the Incan roads once you conquer the people.

BTW this is FLVS

Answer 1

In 1533 CE the Inca Empire was the largest in the world. It extended

across western South America from Quito in the north to Santiago

in the south. However, the lack of integration of conquered peoples

into that empire, combined with a civil war to claim the Inca throne

and a devastating epidemic of European-brought diseases, meant

that the Incas were ripe for the taking. Francisco Pizarro arrived in

Peru with an astonishingly small force of men whose only interest

was treasure. With superior weapons and tactics, and valuable

assistance from locals keen to rebel, the Spanish swept away the

Incas in little more than a generation. The arrival of the visitors to

the New World and consequent collapse of the Inca Empire was the

greatest humanitarian disaster to ever befall the Americas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The Inca, however, didn't have a lot of basic technologies we often consider important to advanced societies. They didn't use the wheel for transport. They didn't have a writing system for records (though they did have mailmen to aid communication!). They didn't even have iron for making tools. How did they create such an advanced Empire?

The Inca were problem-solvers. When faced with a problem, they came up with some interesting and effective solutions. The Inca empire’s rapid expansion in the 15th century CE also played a role in the development of new technologies. Expansion put new demands on the Inca government and as the empire grew, Inca rulers needed to find new ways to unite the many different peoples under their control. Expansion also led to an intermingling of cultures. Just as it always does, cultural interactions led to new ways to understand and to meet technological challenges.

Their job was made all the more difficult due to their unique geographical considerations. In fact, while it’s easy to relate advances in farming, government, record keeping, and architecture to the needs defined by the rapid expansion of the empire, geography shaped their technological adaptations.
