Hernando de Soto was sent inland to explore the interior

Time: 1530s warning

Place: Inca

Details: Hernando de Soto was sent inland to explore the interior and returned with an invitation to meet the Inca, Atahualpa, who had defeated his brother in the civil war and was resting at Cajamarca with his army of 80,000 troops, that was at the moment armed only with hunting tools.

Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
