The Conquest of the Incas is the definitive history of this civilization's overthrow, from the invasion by Pizarro's small gang of conquistadors and the Incas' valiant attempts to expel the invaders to the destruction of the Inca realm, the oppression of its people, and the modern discoveries of Machu Picchu and the lost city of Vilcabamba.

In just over a hundred years - from the death of Muhammad in 632 to the beginning of the Abbasid Caliphate in 750 - the followers of the Prophet swept across the whole of the Middle East, North Africa, and Spain. Their armies threatened states as far flung as the Franks in Western Europe and the Tang Empire in China. The conquered territory was larger than the Roman Empire at its greatest expansion, and it was claimed for the Arabs in roughly half the time.

For hundreds of years, the history of the conquest of Mexico and the defeat of the Aztecs has been told in the words of the Spanish victors. Miguel León-Portilla has long been at the forefront of expanding that history to include the voices of indigenous peoples. In this new and updated edition...

It was bigger than Seville, cleaner than Paris, and engineered better than either. Twenty-two months after the Spanish arrived, it was rubble. On November 8, 1519, four hundred Spanish soldiers walked across a stone causeway and into a city none of them had words for. Tenochtitlan rose out of a lake. Its market handled tens of thousands of buyers and sellers before noon. Fresh water arrived through a dual-channel aqueduct so one side could be cleaned while the other ran. The streets were swept daily. The temples were taller than the cathedrals of Castile. The Mexica had built all of this on...

It's time for the King of Ruin, prophesied as the Apocalypse-bringer, to bring the world to its knees!

Twelve million people. Four climate zones. No writing. No money. No wheel. The Inca ran an empire the size of the eastern United States without a single thing the textbooks insist a state requires. No alphabet. No coinage. No carts, because the only draft animals on the continent — llamas — top out around eighty pounds. No horses. No iron. Tawantinsuyu, the Four Regions Together, governed twelve million subjects across desert, jungle, coastal plain, and altiplano above fifteen thousand feet, and it did so for a century with tools every other Old World empire would have called ...
