The empire noted for its vast road networks and early postal systems, stretching from the Andes to the Pacific, is the Inca Empire. Flourishing in South America from the early 15th century until the Spanish conquest in the 16th century, the Incas developed an extensive system of roads, known as the Qhapaq Ñan, connecting remote regions and facilitating communication and trade. Their impressive infrastructure played a crucial role in uniting the vast empire, enhancing administrative efficiency and cultural exchange across diverse communities.
