About this ebook

Nonetheless, tensions among his own men and from the native populations would make things more difficult than he anticipated.

In just 50 minutes you will:

• Gain a deeper understanding of the agreements he negotiated with the Spanish government and his new conquest of South American territories
• Discover the problems that arose with Inca populations and the dissidence within his own troops that led to his dramatic assassination
