Outside Reading Post 13

For today's blog, I will comment on how boring the AP World History Book is. For today, I was reading chapter 21, Mesoamerica and Oceania. I really found the civilization of the Inca very exciting. It was very interesting, despite the boring reading. I learned that the Inca was the most powerful empire in South America within that time period. Their capital was Technochlitan, and their empire spread to most of South America. What really fascinated me was the use of weaponry in the empire; it sucked. They used stone weapons that were completely obsolete to the Spanish weaponry of steel and guns. From the reading, "The Inca was the strongest and most developed civilization in the entire continent during 1500C.E." What really was interesting in the reading was the fact that although the Inca was superior to all other nations surrounding it, they still fell to Spanish Conquestadors. Although I was deathly bored of reading for my AP class, I still found the content of the reading somewhat interesting.
