This map of the Inca Empire (Wayback Machine link) is great for showing the rapid expansion of the Incas across the Andes region. On the original map it was a little difficult to correlate the numbered excerpts with the colored regions, so I made new numbers that will show up a little better on classroom projectors.
There's also a detailed map of the Sacred Valley, but it's also a bit difficult to read because of the color scale.
Along the bottom of the Sacred Valley map is a chronology of rulers, from the first Inca king or Sapa Inca, Manco Cápac, to the period of Spanish conquest during the reign of Atahualpa.
