'''Francisco Pizarro''' (1471-1541) was a Spanish conquistador who led the conquest of [[Peru]], betraying and eventually killing their emperor, [[Atahualpa]].  The ancient Peru city of Cuzco was completely destroyed and replaced with the city of [[Lima]].  While in Peru, Pizzaro also discovered the greatest silver mine in the Americas, the vast majority of which was traded with [[China]], whose economy was based on silver.  Like Cortes' conquests, Pizzaro's conquests were facilitated by the use of [[horse]]s, superior weapons, and devastating European diseases like [[smallpox]], against which the Incans had no immunity.
