The Inca Empire, known by the natives as Tawantinsuyu (Quechua: The Four Regions), was the largest empire in pre-Columbian America. The capital of the Empire of the Incas was Cusco in modern-day Peru, their emperor was known as the Sapa Inca and the official language was the Quechua. The Inca civilization arose from the highlands of Peru sometime in the early 13th century, and the last Inca stronghold was conquered by the Spanish conquistadors in 1572.
