30 Apr 1535 Jahr - Later life

Beschreibung:

in 1535, Pizarro founded the city of Lima and made it Peru's capital. While he was governor of Peru, many Spaniards settled there. The settlers started mining great amounts of silver and gold and began to build many cities. Using Peru as its base, Spain conquered most of the rest of the Andes Mountains region.

In the late 1530's, a dispute between Pizarro and Almagro over who was to rule the area around Cusco led to war. Pizarro's forces won the conflict in 1538 and executed Almagro. On June 26, 1541, followers of Almagro's son killed Pizarro.
