Fun fact: the ancient Inca worshipped an entire roster of lesser gods, who they believed to control various elements of life, and from time to time mingled with, and even bred with humans. The most famous of these minor gods was Rutuy, who was depicted in stone carvings at both Cusco and Machu Pichu. A powerful demi-god, Rutuy was master of livestock and ranching, and took the form of a half-man, half-llama, and answered prayers related to animal husbandry, and grand strategy computer games published by Paradox Interactive.
Honestly Pizarro was just lucky... the Incans just happened to be freshly out of a civil war when he first arrived and then they also happened to be not imune to smallpox. So it was like the HRE in 1648 being hit by some kind of aliens...

The Inca didn't roll over when the Sapa Inca was captured like you mentioned at 35:50, serious resistance continued for 40 years. The majority of the deaths from disease happened after the spanish had everyone in forced labor camps under the Mita system. This might be historical nitpicking, but imo it's important to remember that everyone has agency: the standard story makes millions of Andeans completely passive while removing responsibility for millions of deaths from the Spanish, which imo isn't great.
Definitely do a part 2 and make europa universalis into Inca universalis
Oh the Inca! I can say a few things aswell about this topic. They had an exceptional road system called "Qhapaq Nan". Essentially it transported goods, and delivered messages over long distances. As you might know, transporting stuff over mountainous terrain is hard, and so it was built which took alot of resources and manpower. Their language is called Quechua, which they also call themselves (I think) and they are different from the southern people called the Aimara. As the Aztecs, they also fell due to the Spanish conquests because they desired their silver mines. Sorry for the text, but I wanted to get this out. The mission tree looks cool, will try that next time. See you. 😄

I once saw in a documentary that they had built storage houses where they kept "public goods" like cloth, utensils and such which then was distributed among the people (they didn't say or know on what basis one would get which product, but I imagine it social status was key). Vaguely akin to the distribution of goods in a communist state. Now with your information provided I can imagine a vast road system with stops along the way where one can rest and restock supplies.

Everyone socially above had their own job, like taking care of the village (and keeping these storages full), the rest just worked, so while people were divided into classes, everyone did something prosperous, thus a reason why some call it communism (and socialists like it). Also everyone was equal before law, so thats that.

The Chanka Auxiliaries are mainly useful because they don't count against your force limit, so in the early game you can run a slightly larger army for a bit cheaper. They don't scale into the late game.

At 8:43, you can go below 90% even if not cored, there is a value behind that says exactly how much local autonomy you have, if you clicked that after the core was done you would have lower autonomy, you can check this by having 91 autonomy, lowering it, and then coring that province and compare it to just coring it.

In the beginning, the Terra incognito and the discovered map; they look like a dude taking a picture of the sky.
About Atahualpa and Huascar: you might think that one of them won the civil war but actually the Spaniards won it. De jure the last Sapa Inca was Atahualpa, but both of them were taken hostages by the Pizarro Bros. Huascar tried to negotiate his release and asked the Spanish to help him take the throne, and when the Inca soldiers found out about him doing that they just killed him and threw his corpse away, which is unusual for a culture in which rulers were mummified and their mummies were treated with extreme respect. Atahualpa offered Pizarro a shit ton of gold but got killed nonetheless. He was offered a choice between burning on a stake and being choked to death (but only if he converted to christianity) and he obviously chose the second option because, once again, corpses were quite important for the Incas. After the conversion he adopted the name Juan, if I remember correctly. Also, fun fact: the Pizarros teached him to play chess during his imprisonment and he reportedly liked it quite a bit and also was good in it. Sad thing they killed him nonetheless.
The inca actually did have wheels, they just weren't used for transportation because they were inneficient in the andean landscape

Real quick I just wanna say that european kings had the idea of the divine right to rule which is similar to the mandate of heaven but not all encompassing. Whereas the Mandate says the Emperor rulers all under heaven, and it doesn't matter how far north you go or south or west or whatever. The Divine Right of Kings says God gave me this kingdom to rule in his stead, for we are servants of God etc. The reason you have to Checkmate in Chess is due to the fact that capturing the king was very important.

Quipu could communicate more than numeral information. But whether it developed into a full writing system or (k)not is a debated topic. Most scholars believe that if it was used as a system of writing then the writing version of it was not very well known before it fell out of use due to Pizarro's invasion. In essence, it was about to be one if it wasn't already.

At 11:21 when laith reforms the religion he loses two stability and immediately following that he loses another to a comet sighted event moving him from +1 to -2. At that date (September 1456) he has 239 admin mana. In the next clip at the date April 1457, a mere 7 months later, he sits at +1 stability with 288 admin mana, an increase of 49 (consistent with him gaining 7 admin per month). It’s clear that he had no way to get that stability and this is a clear case of console command use. I can understand why he would do this but I also think the videos would be better if he rolled with the punches. #cheater

I think a key difference in your framing of the "capture the ruler steal the kingdom" thing between the inca and china is generally you only replace the job in china. Historically we see time and time again foreign invaders come in and replace the ruling dynasty but the administration more or less carried on as was, minus a few reforms. Despite ruling the nation you generally did not have the freedom to perform sweeping changes as the internal institutions were incredibly powerdul and would fight you each step along the way, the emperor couldnt even get away with honouring his birthfather (who was also dead) with a lesser title let alone personally propose changes. Not even having hordes of foreign professional soldiers could tip the scales quite so much.

It most certainly was used as a numerical data system. Whether it had a literary use is debated, but scholarship leans towards yes; with the caveat that we probably won't ever decipher them. Since deciphering literary works is more difficult than numerical.

Tbf to them I would say that the wheel in terms of transportation is maybe the most overrated invention in history. I'm not saying it wasn't important, but in popular opinion it often overshadows other things like boats (there is a reason nearly every major city was build near a river, horse drawn boats where a major mode of transporting stuff up into the 20th century) and canals or simply horses/donkeys/mules
