The Inkas of South America 82
(1438)
The striking Inka Empire grew strong and rich by the leadership of Pachacuti. The Inkas called their empire the Land of the Four Quarters, and the capital city of Cuzco marked its center point. They had connected their cities with 15,000 miles of highway with markers that counted every six miles, and their messenger service could spread news across the whole land in two days! Pachacutie's special high mountain retreat, Machu Picchu, was only discovered in 1911, over 400 years after the Spanish had found and conquered the Inka empire of over 10 million people.
