The
Neo-Inca State, also known as the
Neo-Inca state of Vilcabamba, was the Inca state established by Inca emperor
Huayna Capac's son
Manco Inca Yupanqui in
Vilcabamba in 1537. It is considered the remnants of the
Inca Empire (1438–1533) after the
Spanish conquest. It lasted until 1572, when the last Inca stronghold was conquered, and the last ruler,
Túpac Amaru, Manco's son, was captured and executed. This ended resistance to the Spanish conquest under the political authority of the Inca state.
