By the end of the 16th century, a small
tribal village high in the Andes was able
to unite a massive swathe of land all
across the Andes through a clever use
of religion and politics. The Inca
Religion was in fact a wide combination
of many local traditions which were all
adapted to the Inca Religious view,
helping to unite the Inca state through
the idea of one unified religion,
government, and culture.
