CAPAC INCAS AND HAHUA INCAS<br />
<strong>The</strong> Incas themselves were divided into two classes based on<br />
blood and privilege.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Capac Incas were a class of people related by blood who<br />
were believed to have descended from the Inca founder<br />
Manco Capac. <strong>The</strong>y held all of the highest posts in the<br />
empire.<br />
To address the shortage of individuals available to fill all of the<br />
critical posts in an expanding empire, Pachacuti decided to<br />
make Incas out of all of the nearest neighbouring nobles to<br />
Cuzco who spoke Quechua. <strong>The</strong>se were known as the<br />
Hahua (“Outer”) Incas.<br />
Only Capac Incas could become emperor and rule the land.
