Toledo was one of the greatest Viceroys to rule in the old Inca Empire, but the one thing he did wrong during this time was to execute the Inca Leader Tupac Amaru in 1571.

This article refers to the Inca Túpac Amaru who died in 1572, see Túpac Amaru II for the man whose Christian name was José Gabriel Condorcanqui. ...
Toledo ruled as Viceroy until 1581 when he was blamed for the books not being balanced and taxes not being sent back to Spain. He was taken back to Spain where he was jailed for this crime until 1584 when he passed away of natural causes. |
