THE INCA RULES.

The Inca's sophisticated and organized government was called the Tahuantinsuyo. It was a kind of monarchy ruled by a single leader called the Sapa Inca, which means "Sole Ruler." He was the holder of the most powerful force invested in his physical and spiritual body. His principal wife was called "Coya."
When the Europeans arrived in Peru the Inca Empire was huge. It stretched for over 2,000 miles from the North to South and had an estimated population of 10 million people.
The Incas imposed a set of 3 Laws on its citizens : -Ama Sua "Do not steal,"Ama Llulla "Do not lie," Ama Quella "Do not be lazy." Through these 3 Laws the Inca government promoted peace among its people, because these laws were based on a set of supernatural beliefs, customs and practices that were transmitted to all people by the Sapa Inca himself or his representatives.
Laziness was considered a very serious crime because it was understood as an action against the Sapa Inca because the lazy ones deprived him from the energy that their work represented in the supernatural force that measured it.
Regional leaders had the power to decide in matters of these Laws, however when the penalty was mutilation or death, the authority handling this transgressions had to be higher. Since the purpose of the Inca Law was to teach how transgressions affected the normal distribution of power to the offender and prevent re- occurrence by any member of the society, mutilation of the corrupted one and the death penalty were frequently applied. Rebellions, homicide, adultery, drunkenness, theft, laziness, breaking state possessions or going into rooms of the Chosen Women were all punished to death by stoning (symbolizing that the vessel that carried such negative energy was destroyed), hanging or pushing the person off a cliff, depending on the weight of the transgression.
The social stability then was achieved by the teaching, understanding and application of the Laws in a very strict way in order to maintain the moral values that in turn formed a disciplined society in both worlds, the spiritual and the physical.
The Laws were severe and any kind of transgression was considered an action against the spiritual power behind it, hence the transgression was considered an action against the divinity force in charge of that specific power, and the transgression was severely punished. The upper class was suppose to set an example to others, so they would be punished more severely than the common class.
Since the punishment was executed in the spiritual realm, there were no system of imprisonment and the reason is that offenders were punished according to the weight of the transgression as an exemplary to the rest of the population. If a person made a mistake for the first time, a scolding was issued by the government, but if the person had a recurrence then it was punished by death. Survivors of the harsh punishments were forced to tell their stories for the rest of their lives. Those interested in listening would provide food to them so basically their survival was based on how engaging and compelling their stories were.
Penalties were collective or personal, according to the weight of the crime, in a range that went from simple mass repressions to the isolation of entire villages.
When the Incas conquered new territories, their local Laws continued to be applied since they had another divinities in charge of them as long as they did not oppose or enter in conflict with Inca Law.
If the leader of the newly conquered territory opposed to the new Inca set of rules, he would be executed and a new royal leader would oversee and secure loyalty among the population. This new leader was usually transferred from another territory along with his family and entourage.
So everyone in the Inca Empire had specific jobs and everyone was aware about how the Inca Law worked in the invisible and visible worlds.
