History of the Inca Empire DOCUMENTARY

In this animated historical documentary, we will talk abut the origins of the Inca, the rise of their empire, its peak, arrival of the Spanish conquistadors of Francisco Pizarro and the war between them and the Inca people.

The video and the script for it were created by our friend Cogito

It’s so weird that my ancestors destroyed my other ancestors.

Well, I'm peruvian and yeah I've always been into historic stuff. I must say this video was really well done. The truth is many people in my own country don't know much about history. For me it's pretty cool seeing videos like this because someone pretty far away will watch it and thus history won't be lost. The same thing could be said about me learning history of other places that well I'm pretty sure will never visit lol

This is the best documentary on the incas EVER. This is so perfectly, thoroughly done

Makes you wonder where the Inca would have ended up if left alone

In my university class my prof said they did actually have the wheel on toys for kids. They just never adapted it due too the terrain plausibly

I love the idea of a community working together to provide and help each other survive. It’s interesting to hear of a civilization that didn’t rely on money.

Of all the countries I’ve been to, Peru was by far the most beautiful. Amazing mountain lines and beautiful valleys. Machu Pichu is just surreal. So much love and spirit there. Our guide was so humble and open about his place and people. Would 10/10 recommend over anywhere in the world! And I’ve been around a bit ;)

Damn that was even more depressing than anticipated

Maya: we built of limestone
Aztecs: we built on the water
Inca: we built on fucking mountains!

10:26 - From this point on, audio gets very feeble.

I had no idea the Inca was utilizing the Federation's no-money economy 700 years before the United Federation of Planets was even formed.

The Inca Empire was to South America as the Roman Empire was to the Mediterranean. Incredibly impressive.

Shame all those Incan artifacts got destroyed :(

The presentation turned this video into one of those stories of which you know that they end badly but hope until the end that they won't. Great work.

[kokopelli]

Pretty sure everyone was rooting for the Inca.

[rageraptor]

Such a sad ending to the incan empire 😢

[ThisisBarris]

Well I guess I'm going to spend my Sunday morning rewatching Cogito's awesome Inca series! More than happy too. I became fascinated with the Incas since my stay in Chile; it was truly an incredible civilization.

Thank you for the great videos guys!

Could you please do videos on pre Inca/pre maya civilisations like Chimu, Chachapoya, Wari, Norte Chico, Nazca, Zapotec, Olmec, or possibly even the Guarani ?

I've never seen a history channel / programme on TV or YouTube as good as Kings and Generals. An incredible amount of effort goes into these TV worthy programme. I love watching them with my younger brothers. I'm studying history in uni and they get curious about what I study so I put your videos on for them. Entertainment for all ages and academic levels
