The Incas never invented the wheel. They never invented a system of writing.High in the Andes Mountains of South America, the Incas built thousands of miles of well-paved roads, everyone in the empire was well fed and no one was homeless.
There was almost no crime in the Inca Empire. Inca laws were very harsh. Punishment was swift or else you would have to live through this stuff.
- If you insulted the Inca, cursed the gods, or committed a murder, you were thrown off a cliff.
- If you were caught stealing or cheating, you either had your hands and feet cut off.(scarey!)
- There were less punishments. You could be stoned. You could be tied to a wall and left to freeze.
