There is nobility in the resistance. We don't say "LOL Warsaw Uprising was lame because they lost". We lionize it, because men and women took it into their own hands to defend themselves against impossible odds. Likewise we should see the Inca and Neo-Inca.

Fuck the Aztecs though. No sympathy for them, only sympathy for their vassal states and neighbors that got screwed.
