The country that was important for the transfer of Inca treasures to the Spanish was Peru. During the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire in the 16th century, the Spanish conquistadors, led by Francisco Pizarro, seized large amounts of gold, silver, and other precious items from the Incas. The treasures that the Spanish obtained from the Incas were subsequently shipped to Spain from the Viceroyalty of Peru, which at that time included much of South America. The transfer of these treasures helped to dramatically increase the wealth of Spain and played a significant role in the economic development of Europe during this era.
