In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the reign of Tupac Inca Yupanqui, the tenth Sapa Inca who expanded Tawantinsuyu to its greatest territorial extent. They discuss his conquest of the Chimú Empire, the only serious rival to Inca power on the coast, and his campaigns deep into the Amazon and present-day Chile and Argentina. Lucas explains the strategic use of mitmaq resettlement, the construction of the Qhapaq Ñan road network in newly conquered regions, and the administrative reforms that integrated diverse peoples into the empire. The conversation touches on Tupac's architectural legacy, including the fortress of Sacsayhuaman and the royal estate at Chinchero, as well as his mysterious death, possibly by poisoning. They also consider the Spanish chronicler Pedro Cieza de León's accounts of Tupac's reign and the ongoing debate among historians about the extent of Inca expansion before the arrival of Europeans. #IncaEmpire #TupacIncaYupanqui #SapaInca #Tawantinsuyu #ChimuEmpire #ChanChan #QhapaqÑan #Mitmaq #Sacsayhuaman #Chinchero #PedroCiezaDeLeon #IncaExpansion #Andes #IncaConquest #AmazonCampaign #ChileCampaign #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
