Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Inca empire was the largest empire in the Americas in terms of both population and area under its control. At its peak, the Inca empire had a population of around 12 million people and controlled a vast territory that stretched over 2,500 miles along the western coast of South America. The Aztec empire, while impressive in its own right, did not have as large a population or control as much territory as the Inca. The Sumerian empire was located in ancient Mesopotamia, not in the Americas, and the Chimú empire, while a significant empire in the Andean region, did not have as large a population or control as much territory as the Inca.
