The Inca or Incan Empire ruled between the early 1200s and 1572, a large chunk of pre-Columbian South America, from modern Ecuador to Chile. Cusco served as the administrative, political and military centre for the Empire.

Two of the best examples of Incan engineering are the iconic mountain citadel of Machu Picchu and the ancient capital of Cusco.

System of roads and bridges across the Andes (mountainous terrain)

Fortifications and buildings (earthquake resistant)

Aqueducts and agricultural terraces (divert water from local rivers)

Consider the conditions in China during Mao Zedong’s rule (1949 to 1976) and after his rule (1976 to the present). Compare and c
Dovator [93]

Before Mao Zedong: China was underdeveloped with healthcare facilities and educational institutions only serving the privileged upper class. During this period, there were outlaws that performed despicable deeds such as massacring people. Furthermore, the country's ruling power was divided into several tribe chieftains, warlords, and dynasties. In short, there was no central ruling body. Slavery was commonplace and women were not respected and were treated as possessions.

After Mao Zedong's rule, the women were finally recognized and given the same privileges that men had. Warlords which have been dominating their territories and living off the people's hard earned tributes for countless years were uprooted. Slavery as well as headhunting, which were common practices, were greatly discouraged and over time, were phased out. Poverty was greatly diminished and the people's life expectancy lengthened. With more access to healthcare facilities, the previous life expectancy which was set at 40 increased to 70.
