No one received the majority of electoral votes in 1824--due to this the top 3 candidates moved on to the House of Representatives for a vote. 

In 1824, no clear majority winner came out of the electoral votes. Andrew Jackson, John Q. Adams, and William Crawford were the top three vote winners so they went onto the House vote. In the House, each state gets one vote--John Q. Adams ended up winning the election.

The lntellectual contribution of the Incas
Masteriza [31]
Well the Incas made some great contributions to history. One way was that they made quipus. Even thought the Incas did not have a written language they did use quipus, which were a complex math and communication system. Quipu strings were very effective and they helped with math and communication all throughout the Inca empire. The Inca people also built roads, stone buildings, and developed different ways of farming. They also discovered many things about astronomy. I sure hope this helps! :)
