  7. History • In 1532 the Spanish soldier and adventurer Francisco Pizarro landed in Peru with a force of about 180 men. Conditions were likely to conquest, for the empire was destroyed by a present civil war between the heirs to the Inca throne, Atahualpa and Huascar, each of which were wanting to control the empire. This internal dissension, plus the terror inspired by Spanish guns and horses—unknown to the indigenous peoples until then—made it relatively easy for only a lot of Spaniards to conquer this large empire.
