Wari Empire

The Wari Empire was a prehistoric civilization that thrived in the Andean region of present-day Peru between roughly 600 and 1100 AD. Known for its advanced architecture, agriculture, and road systems, the Wari established a highly organized society with a centralized government. They are recognized for developing urban centers, notably the city of Wari, which featured impressive stone buildings. The empire influenced surrounding cultures through trade and military expansion, laying the groundwork for later civilizations like the Inca. The Wari's innovative practices in terracing and irrigation significantly impacted agricultural development in the region.
