    The document summarizes key facts about the Inca Empire, which was located in western South America before Columbus' arrival. The Inca Empire was the largest empire in America at the time, with its capital city of Cusco located in modern-day Peru. The Incas developed advanced agricultural techniques like terracing, or cutting flat surfaces into mountains to grow more crops, which allowed the empire to expand. They also built over 10,000 miles of roads across the rugged terrain, using bridges and staircases to connect their empire.
