Question 8 • NC-World History: Issues and Patterns

Which statement best describes Incan trading practices?

Answer
A
The Incan empire had a strong merchant class that traded goods.
B
The Incan government closely controlled the economy of the empire.
C
The Inca traded crafts and tools with other groups, but not food.
D
The Inca traded within the empire, but did not trade with other groups.

Explanation

The Incan government organized and controlled much of the economy, including the production and distribution of goods. Unlike societies with a powerful merchant class, the Inca relied heavily on state-run systems to move resources among communities. So the best description is that the Incan government closely controlled the empire’s economy.
