**Incas**
Have you always wanted to learn about the great Inca Empire, but your schoolteachers refuse to listen? Are you confused between Inca, Aztec, and Maya? Do you want to learn how the Inca people were unique from their Mesoamerican predecessors? Could you even draw the Inca Empire on a map?
All this and more will be covered within the pages of Incas: A Comprehensive Look at the Largest Empire in the Americas.
Inside you will find:
How an empire grew from such humble, and hostile, beginnings
The geographic location of the Empire
The incredible natural odds the Incan people overcame
An in-depth look at the Incan gods
The terrible Civil War
And more...
**Maya Civilization**
This book's coverage begins with the development of the Maya through the ancient eras, starting with their founding in Belize as a hunter-gatherer society in the Pre-Classic Period all the way through the Classic and Post-Classic Period during which they had flourished into the civilization they are known for today. Inside this book, you will find the following:
The history of the Maya people and where their civilization began and expanded from
How the name "Maya" came to be used for these people
The growth of the Maya as they became a booming society during the Classic Period
When colonists began to interact with the Maya civilizations in Central America
Why archaeologists believe the Maya empire fell
And Much more
**The Byzantine Empire**
The history of the Byzantine Empire tells a tale of monumental victories and equally significant defeats--of a phoenix rising from the ashes over and over again until it simply ran out of miracles. It is also the tale of civilization which impacted and influenced virtually every one of its neighbors well after its fall and whose culture has persisted in some ways to this day.
In this book, you will learn about...
The Division of East and West
The Fall of Rome
Justinian's Golden Age
Religious Disputes
Iconoclasm
The Reign of Basil the Bulgar-Slayer

The Final Fall
And Much More...

Everything you need to know about those great people is right past the front page.
From its founding in the 1300s, the Inca Empire lasted roughly twelve generations. In just that time, it accomplished what other civilizations took centuries to achieve. Learn about the effective expansionist policy of the Inca, and how they maximized profits by leaning on clever marketing tactics instead of war.
Learn how downfall came at the hands of the Spanish conquerors, who came with guns and steel and plague. Like the meteor that killed the dinosaurs, the invaders were an extinction-level event that the Inca had no way of preparing for. See how unmatched they were in strategy, technology, and how their far superior numbers meant nothing in the end.
Learn what remains of their great civilization, what influence they had over the following course of history and See how they even had an effect on the soda you drink...
