  1. By doing the opposite of everyone else. Instead of the king leaving his next in line all his riches, he would leave those to the other kids, and the new king was forced to go out and earn his own, therefore the society kept growing as each new king had to conquer some new place, it's very interesting and brilliant military tactics if you look further into it (and I seriously recommend you do).


  2. The Incas had one great skill and that was a flair for organisation. They simply out-organised and out-administered the other mountain valley cultures with whom they were initially in competition, using all the skills, sciences and artifacts of cultures which had existed long before.

    The Inca, strictly speaking, did not build a complex civilisation. They were only in power for 90 years before the Conquistadors under Pizarro came. They just welded the existing components of their civilisation together and managed them better than anyone else.

  3. How?  By organizing and valuing education.

  4. We don't know for sure. One theory is that they were "trained" by "people" from another world. Read Erich Von Danikens CHARIOTS OF THE GODS, GODS FROM OUTER SPACE or GOLD OF THE GODS. or try COLONY EARTH by Richard Mooney. There seems to be a long gray period where man made this big leap from very primitive to structurally civilized. Archaeologist, anthropology and history all have trouble piecing it together.

  6. By using the innovations of other cultures like the Wari and Moche. There's been culture in the Andes for more than 5000 years starting with the pyramids of Caral which date from 3000 BC
