The Inca Empire: They Conquered All of South America With No Writing System
The Inca Empire administered 12 million people across 4,000 kilometres.
40,000 kilometres of roads. A postal system faster than medieval Europe.
And not a single written word.
Their records weren't on paper.
They were in knotted strings.
And we are only now learning to read them. 📜🧵 #LostChapters #IncaEmpire
