Answer: Pizarro had a great impact, both positive and negative, on Europeans and the Inca civilization. When Pizarro encountered the Inca Empire, he brought chaos to their civilization. The smallpox disease brought by Pizarro decimated a majority of the Incan society.

Explanation: Francisco Pizarro was an explorer, soldier and conquistador best known for conquering the Incas and executing their leader, Atahuapla. He was born around 1474 in Trujillo, Spain. As a soldier, he served on the 1513 expedition of Vasco Núñez de Balboa, during which he discovered the Pacific Ocean.

Hope this helps!
