The Second Incan Empire, or Sikundu Tawantinsuyu as it is known to it's inhabitants, is an absolute bureaucratic monarchy located in the Peruvian Andes, formed after the effects of Peak Global Warming, or as it is known to it's people as the Musuq Qallariy or "New Beginning". It sees itself as the successor to the old Inca Empire, and most aspects of the nation are modeled after this.

History[edit | edit source]

Pre-Second Incan Empire[edit | edit source]

The Peruvian government did not last long long during the catastrophe, and soon, even Lima had fallen into chaos, as feuding bandits, ideological fanatics and small communities just trying to stay alive. However, in the more mountainous regions of the country, things were changing quickly, which would provide the perfect scenario for Pachacuti II's (2138 - present) conquests. After the collapse of the Peruvian government, the Quechua people and tribes, along with many other native Andean cultures, began to spread once more across the ruins of Peru. While still nominally Catholic, this revolution would provide the perfect setting for the next and arguably more significant revolution, which was the revival of the Incan pantheon. Starting in Cuzco, and radiating outwards, it rapidly converted the peoples of the upper Andes to a reformed Incan faith. But the Catholics were still strong, and this powder keg would provide the perfect opportunity for Pachacuti II to recreate the Inca Empire.

Pachacuti II's Reign (2156 - present)[edit | edit source]

Pachacuti II, whose birth name, on his own orders, has been lost to history, was the bastard child of the minor Apu (King) of Cuzco, meaning that he was not in line to inherit anything as long as there was a legitimate heir. However, while his father was on his deathbed, Pachacuti had his legitimate brother assassinated, leaving him the sole heir to the throne. Upon taking hold of the realm, he began rapidly expanding and forcibly converting those tribes who did not submit. He quickly proved himself to be an amazing military commander, adept at using the mountainous terrain to his advantage. Finally, after years of conquest, he returned to Cuzco to be crowned Sapa Inka of the newly created Second Incan Empire.

After an elaborate coronation ceremony, he continued to expand, first attacking and utterly destroying the short-lived Camana Confederacy, in the Battle of Camana. On February 29th, 2159, the last Camanan forces surrendered, ending the Incan-Camanan War. He also began to rebuild Machu Picchu, and reform the government along old Inca lines, for example, reviving and expanding the Mitmaq service, in which tribes were forcibly resettled around the empire. On May 1st, he announced his goal to expand north until he reached Lima, which was, in ancient times, the home of the Incan oracle, and his willingness to crush anyone who stood in his way. The Nazca Federation was one of those tribes, and preemptively surrendered to his forces. Further expansion finally used the Mitmaq from the crushed Camana Confederacy, who quickly resettled the area to the north of Nazca for the Incas. In the same year, Pachacuti's dignitaries established a division of the Peruvian Andes with The New Departments of Pasto in Colombia, and established trade and diplomacy with the High Andes Republic, purchasing 30 ships from them.

However, the nation's first major war would start when Pachacuti II began his final push into Lima. Upon reaching the city, his legions encountered Chimus who considered themselves the true heirs to the Inca Empire. While the Amachay Sapa Inka (ASI) would just barely hold out, his forces were stopped at Lima, losing 2,000 men, thus beginning the Inca-Chimu war. While both forces exchanged occasional fire, the Sikundu Kallpa reinforced the ASI position, secretly surrounding and finally taking Lima, losing around 5,000 men. However, internal struggles continually threatened Pachacuti's regime, with Chimu separatists and Catholic missionaries joining in an informal alliance to take down the regime. In response, Pachacuti created a secret police, the Awqaqos a Inti, or Warriors of Inti, and enforcing martial law in the Chimu areas. However, these activities were extremely expensive, and Pachacuti was forced to take out a sizable loan. In June of 2160 the treaty of Chimbote was signed, leading to the full surrender of Chimu forces except for their overthrown 'Sapa Inka's' group of diehard radicals in the far north.

Government[edit | edit source]

The Second Incan Empire is an absolute bureaucratic monarchy. The Sapa Inka is nominally the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial head of the country, but he runs these positions through a vast bureaucracy based heavily off of the Old Incan Empire. Most bureaucrats are part of the hereditary Kuraka or appointed Kamayuq Corps, and these oversee groups of taxpayers, from Hunu kurakas who administer 10,000 taxpayers and execute the laws of the Sapa Inka to the Chunka kamayuqs who look after 10 taxpayer. If a taxpayer feels he or she has been wronged, they may appeal up to the various layers of bureaucracy until they reach the Sapa Inka, who is the final arbitrator in cases such as these.

Economy[edit | edit source]

The Incan economy is heavily controlled by the Sapa Inka, who has the authority to, through his administrators, have extreme control over what get produced, where, although there is a limited free market in the major cities, such as Nazca and Cuzco. The economy is heavily based around Peru's rich natural resources. Peru produces vast quantities of silver, zinc, and lead, useful as currency and for more utilitarian goals, such as weaponry and machinery. However, agriculture is less important than in other regions, as to farm in the mountainous Andes of Peru requires huge amount of terraforming to be successful.

Military[edit | edit source]

Land Forces[edit | edit source]

Structure

Currently, the Incan military is divided into five main groups. There is the Amachay Sapa Inka of 5,000 who are the Sapa Inka's personal legions. They are made up of 3,000 infantry, 1,000 artillery, and 1,000 elite mountain rangers. and there are the Hukñiqin, Sikundu and Kinsa Kallpa, who form the main bulk of the Sapa Inka's army, with 12,000 each, 6,000 infantry, 3,000 motorized infantry, and 3,000 basic artillery. Finally, there are the Hirka Wanay, elite mountain rangers, of which there are 4,000. 1,000 are included in the Amachay Sapa Inka, and the remaining 3,000 are in their own military group, aptly named the Hirka Wanay.

Leadership

The Sapa Inka is officially commander-in-chief of the entire army, but in practice chooses to delegate the direct administration of the other army groups to the Umas, leaders in Quechua, who administer the Kallpas and the Hirka Wanay.

Naval Forces[edit | edit source]

Structure

As of now, the Incan navy is divided into two main fleets, the Nazca Pukllay, based in Nazca, and the Camana Pukllay, based in Camana. Each fleet consists of fifteen Cuzco-class frigates and 5 Sapa-class cruisers, all bought from the High Andes Republic.

Leadership

The Hanaq Wamink'a or High Admiral commands both fleets, which in turn are each led by one Wamink'a or Admiral.
