Presumably if it is preserved ruins of Tenochtitlan are pure, this is due to Cortés razed after taking the enclave. And of course What could I do? think about the future archeology? I argue however that there is no satisfaction in becoming governor of a pile of rubble and foundations. Where is if not the pleasure of conquest?
dilettantism and educational failure (does she have to do with us the story of the conquest of America, no?) Do not compete with free Internet encyclopedia, and I try, I consult my books other than children.
The Marquis Francisco Pizarro González landed on American shores in 1532 with an army of less than two hundred English soldiers equipped with horses and firearms. Like Cortes, commander of Trujillo worth of political strategy in alliance with the chiefs of peoples under the Inca empire. Both know the psychological blow that affects native armies to eliminate their political and military leaders, and thrown over the nations whose armed forces are made up of thousands of units. Pizarro takes
imperial intrigues to bring to fulfillment his plan of conquest. In 1493 the Topa Inca died, his successor was Huayna Capac, the latter dying in 1527 the empire had been divided among his sons Huascar and his brother Atahualpa. In 1532, to claim his power, ordered Atahualpa's imprisonment Huascar usurping the empire. The English tend
Atahualpa ambush taking him hostage. The Incas pay a huge ransom for his sovereign filling the cabin where his imprisonment with clusters of gold and silver, the English do not respect his word and murdered Atahualpa. First infamy of the Iberian conquerors. Pizarro
placed on the throne, and subjected to gentle Manco Capac, the brother of Atahualpa (respect family ties in default), yet promotes a revolt in 1525 with 40,000 Indians and besieged the English in Cuzco (Inca capital) and Lima. Even failing this terrible revolt, revolts and rebellions are no barracks for the colonial period. The English resort to measures of force trying to erase indigenous traditions forcing them to Christian conversion and massacre a large percentage with forced labor, predominantly in the silver mines. The conquerors appeal to a repertoire of infamy, but cautious and cunning (qualities that characterized them, apart from extraordinary courage), Pizarro and Cortes both seem to follow the advice of Machiavelli: "A people has to be the pampered or crushed, because will come to light offenses, and that can not be serious "and:" Whoever conquers a free people and not destroy it commits a grave mistake that will end hauling debris. "
The "pampering" of the conquistadores to the rightful owners of the lands they occupy us in Latin America lead to assume that were imposed by the rule of cruelty, deceit, greed and perversion. The assumption is correct. Is incorrect to assume that the modus operandi of the English was successfully applied to the natives as vulnerable, innocent and devoid of malice, evil, pushed the use of violence. Mayas, Aztecs and Incas were horrified to hear mention that, in medieval Europe the preferred execution method was the stake in public places and that the victim was burned alive after being tortured in the case of the unwilling to confess to the crime of heresy; in France and England preferred the gallows, which killed at least by asphyxiation by neck fracture: to be extremely awkward rigging hanging, hangman's assistant was up to the crossbeam of the gallows and jumped on his shoulders convicted of breaking the spine, a procedure very slow, terribly distressing.
The Incas were in no better or more forgiving, besides making their performances with ritual frequency, unlike the Aztecs, who removed the victim's heart consensual with an obsidian knife within a few seconds, killing without consent vícima and regardless of your age.
The temples were reserved for the priests, the populace did not attend the rites but "celebrated" drunk with chicha (alcoholic beverage obtained by fermentation of corn) and left a frantic dance (what a coincidence with our contemporary mores. Mummies were found in children under five years in Inca tombs, and studies on these findings demonstrate that the Incas used to sacrifice llamas, guinea pigs or birds, however, the imperial coronation celebrations, intercession of the gods in defeat , plague or famine, or when the local governor considers it necessary it involved the killing of prisoners and children under five years more often received as payment of taxes.
imperial laws were very strict, and its violation did not involve a penalty bearable theft or transposition to another jurisdiction without permission is punishable by previous death from torture. The crime of murder in exchange entailed exile ordered by the emperor on the coca plantations, sabotage and corruption simple death penalty, but every punishment differed in severity as social status of the offender. The Inca empire was a sovereign government with an absolute despotism (tyranny), assisted by a hereditary aristocracy. each occupying a specific place and still in a social context: the family of the Inca up, then fine, workers (farmers, pastoralists, artisans) and slaves below. Every ten family heads had a manager and a governor in 40,000 families. Local officials applied the Inca system in the conquered territories, Quechua language was mandatory, marriages were made through the Governor, the men appeared before him and chose their future wives provided that men and women were in good physical constitution, public employees inspected the homes to monitor that women fulfill their marital duties and home. Vagrancy and the elderly was not receiving a pension in the form of food and basic necessities, but officials assigned jobs for the disabled deciding on their lives, and blind people should only marry among blind and dwarf among dwarfs.
Empire Expansion Inca dynasties according to
strict compliance system has proven the most effective and productive, however comes with a manufacturing defect that is its very short duration, in fact the Inca Empire protrajo for just two generations. Neighbors like Maya and Aztecs, who never came into contact, the Incas dominated underestimated her and are not worried about the tyranny of a source of danger to the stability of the empire, far as they were to imagine that a foreign people, and ambitious could and help lead them to overthrow the government. We see that the alleged evolution of humanity does not take lessons from history and if we draw a parallel with French absolutism Tsarism but not highly relevant.
certainly no shortage of positivist and progressive minds blame the brutal methods of this or that past or present population to be guilty of fetishes that measure their moral and cultural quality, so that social and political primitivism of Incas would potentially be attributed to ignorance of the wheel, the lack of legal tender (coffee and cocoa SEMIL made up for that deficiency) with special emphasis on the absence of written language, pictographs or geriglíficos, so much so that Inca history tell us the history of the conquerors, and later archeology; a people who held very high degree of organization was not able to come up chimneys or flues for cooking smoke, flowing through the main door of the houses, windows or openings in obedience to a straight pattern, as ignorant of the bow and wheels , the characteristic curve in short, except in the construction of mud huts in a circular. In return they were excellent mathematicians and economists, astronomers and farmers remain on their territory, a rarity valleys, cultivating tiny plots that climbed the slopes of the mountains and hills, its practicality is such that today the Peruvian farmers preserve Aymara about 50,000 different species potato, So no matter the state of soil and climatic conditions never be deprived of their main sustenance.

The Inca Empire Cuzco bequeathed us, fantastic city from the heights, a blend of stone architecture indigenous assembly and late medieval European buildings, and the famous Machu Picchu sanctuary fifty miles northwest of Cuzco, at 2450 meters altitude, remained intact, except for the ceilings of the rooms. Machu Picchu survived the ravages of nature until 1911, when it was discovered, and was not about to resist the constant waves of visitors, looters, profane and shameless tourists, rude and rusty structural stealing memory stones, painted the walls with slogans such as "Hold the Stones" or "Duck Adri and one heart", throwing bags, cups, plastic bottles and cigarette butts, filled the air with noise and shouts scaring wildlife and native birds, and threatened the integrity of the pavements with their march, and some stupid mystical monotheistic religion apostates insulted the wisdom of the ruins by "rituals energy" for "spiritual excursions."
