On the edge of Western South America, wedged between the Earth’s driest desert, largest rainforest, and second highest mountain range lay a sprawling empire. The Inca through ingenious engineering and strict central planning forged one of the world’s most unusual empires. The largest empire in the pre-Columbian Americas, without a written language, the wheel, or money and one of the only empires to stretch upwards rather than across. In this video, we will look at how the Inca rose to power from unknown origins and dominated their region.

As promised, we listened to your feedback, so, this video is: 1. Narrated by Devin 2. Has fewer jokes 3. Has a style closer to ours. Once again, give this video a chance, it is very good.

TheExplorer much of Latin America is mixed with European, Amerindian and African ancestry. Some countries such as Bolivia have higher frequency of indigenous blood. But intermixing was very common in the region and the majority of the population is mestizo.

Congratulations on an outstanding video. This is amazingly well done, and esp. the graphics are breathtaking.

We always tend to gloss over the fact that pre-Columbian history in the Americas was as diverse and eventful as the European one, we just don't know a lot of it.

@beleneaton492 3 года назад

Belen Eaton I find it very interesting how the incas where isolated yet had a system that worked and created such a thriving empire. Amazing how these sort of kingdoms did not have a written language yet they used the knot system to created a log they themselves only knew. Overall they where actually very organized however clearly not very developed using thick animal skin as armor and spheres as weapons but had a great system politically. Less than a year creating this large empire than breaking down in little parts that had essentially governors to report to one king is incredible.

@erniemejia8052 3 года назад

The Inca Empire seemed to be more organized and advanced compared to that of the Aztec Empire. What really fascinates me is how they communicated with one another without adopting a formal language. There is a lot of mystery revolving the rise/ origins of the Inca empire. It is a bit sad to know that many of the Incas records are lost due to the fact that the ability to read Quipu is gone. Also, it is very interesting how the Inca decided to integrate the people who had been conquered to their own society and teach them their lifestyles.

@qus.9617 6 лет назад

Yes, people either downplay it or embellish it to great lengths... In the same way in this video, the Inca ingenuity and disadvantages from the old-world were depicted. The same manner should be addressed for African history. In an honest manner we can marvel at the systems of, say, how the Swiss and Macedonians developed their pike warfare, we can attribute Shaka's reformation of the warfare from ritualistic and changing the length of the spear (shortened), increased the shield size, used the infamous zulu pincer formation and decreased the distance of the engagement of two armies spear throwing distance... At the same time, we cannot delude ourselves to think of how this sort of arrangement was 'revolutionary' or superior as it had already been conceptualised elsewhere.

There are different translations for pachakutik, "pacha" for example be translated both as "earth" and "time". "kuti" is more literally "again". The term is typically used to describe a sort of "resetting" of time and space. And traditional Inca oral history is divided into epochs, each epoch ends with a 'pachakutik' type event which is usually some kind of destructive event. For this reason you will sometimes see "pachakutik" translated as "apocalypse" or "cataclysm".

Sign me up. This is what I am talking about, this is the quality material I love. "Give this a chance" hell yes, Keep it up, very accurate and well detailed. I particularly loved the music, which seemed suitable for the Inca. I loved the intro too, very original. I also loved the graphics and art style here, distinct and unique from the usual one, yet totally original. I also loved the narration, thanks Devin, you just seem to have something that, well, idk, I just prefare it, but good job Cogito on your research and detail! 10/10, quality and accuracy, graphics and all else. The Inca had a very subtle way of expanding their empire, by which the Kingdom of Cuzco, rather simply, annexed or destroyed neighbors, much like I do in Civilization. Keep it up friends! P.S I loved those info bits at the end!

Hip Hip Hurray for Medieval Total War 2: Americas Extended mod

@gianlucaborg195 6 лет назад

I know, I know, the Game doesn't even really extend into the south, but it helped for a few seconds of graphics and was an awesome game (and mods exist you know)

I forgot to mention. This is made with the Americas Extended mod. Which has the Inca 😉 WHEN AM I GETTING MY TOTAL WAR: AMERICAS, CREATIVE ASSEMBLY. WHEN?!!!!

Well, we're getting China now, and just got Britania, so either something middle-eastern or Crusade related (maybe Teutonic Campaign?) or else Americas. They can possibly go to Africa, possibly a grand campaign there or a set like the Italian, Egyptian, Peninsular and Europe campaigns from Napoleon Total War. Otherwise, that would leave the Americas, and there one can co from 15th-16th centuries, or else, 18th-19th centuries. Honestly, however, the campaigns of TW:M2 were awesome, and had good mechanics, much better than Empire Total War or early Rome 2 (albeit that got fixed) - In brief, I predict within 2-3 years, we will at least get Medieval 3
