Read the following excerpt about the Inca civilization written by Spanish conquistador, Pedro de Cieza de Leon, taken from the b

ook Chronicles of the Incas.
As this kingdom was so vast, in each of the many provinces there were many storehouses filled with supplies and other needful things; thus, in times of war, wherever the armies went they drew upon the contents of these storehouses, without ever touching the supplies of their confederates or laying a finger on what they had in their settlements . . . Then the storehouses were filled up once more with the tributes paid the Inca. If there came a lean year, the storehouses were opened and the provinces were lent what they needed in the way of supplies; then, in a year of abundance, they paid back all they had received. No one who was lazy or tried to live by the work of others was tolerated; everyone had to work. Thus on certain days each lord went to his lands and took the plow in hand and cultivated the earth, and did other things. Even the Incas themselves did this to set an example. And under their system there was none such in all the kingdom, for, if he had his health, he worked and lacked for nothing; and if he was ill, he received what he needed from the storehouses.

Based on the excerpt, what can you conclude about the Inca government?

Answer:

They provided for their people in emergency situations.

Explanation:

This passage explains the way in which the Inca provided for their people. We learn that the Inca established storehouses in every province, and in these houses, they would store supplies. These supplies were used by the army, but also by the general population when needed. This allowed all people in the empire to be taken care of, and reduced poverty and inequality. It also gave them a way to deal with emergency situations.

What is the meaning of the quote "The intelligent sovereign makes the law select men and makes no arbitrary promotion himself. H
mart [117]
I'm not 100 percent sure on this, but I think it basically means "A smart leader makes the law promote others and not himself. He makes the law judge others, but does not add anything unnecessary in order to control others." I hope this helps.
