"If the Inca king could not conquer the Titicaca lords who owned these vast herds, he could never be safe."
Explanation:
This question is about the article "Lofty Ambitions of the Inca" where the authors explore the history of the Incas, the region they dominated, the people they conquered and the activities they carried out. One of the sections of the article features the title "The Colla Are Kicked Out" where it shows that the Collas were the dominators of Titicaca, which was a land full of riches and with large herds of islands and alpacas that are extremely strong animals and that can be used in several ways. The titicaca gave the Collas a lot of power and that undermined the security and influence of the Incas, which caused King Inca to decide to dominate the Titicaca. We can see this in the article through the line:
"If the Inca king could not conquer the Titicaca lords who owned these vast herds, he could never be safe."
