The social structure of the Tahuantinsuyo was complex and hierarchical, with the emperor (Sapa Inca) at the top of the pyramid. The noble class, composed of relatives and close allies of the emperor, held significant power and influence, while the majority of the population consisted of commoners who worked the land, paid taxes, and provided labor for the state.
