- History
 The attributed older archaeological rest to the human presence in Peru correspond to XII the millenium adC, much later of which the first humans, recolectores and hunters coming from Asia, crossed the Straits of Bering. This date is based on the rest of Paccaicasa, in the cave of Piquimachay (Department of Ayacucho).
Have been vestiges of the origin of American agriculture in the Cave of the Guitarrero in Yungay, Ancash of 12,600 years ago (10,600 adC), of populations in the Freedom of twelve thousand years of age and in Tacna of eleven thousand years ago. Towards the end of the last freezing these first settlers began the slow process of domesticación of biota local (it see: Neolithic revolution) and consequently to meet in tribes and villages to possibly form ayllus.
In the middle of III the millenium adC was restored first city-been of theocratic regime. The civilization of the Caral, oldest of the American continent, was contemporary of others like those of China, Egypt, India and Mesopotamia; having itself turned then a city already been, surrounded by other civilizations still framed in which "village society" denominates itself. Thus, one is one of the geographic zones that can be considered as it cradles of the civilization of the world by his antiquity (c. 5,000 years). At the end of this period the Chavín prevailed over the others, until its influence decayed and the development of ampler States in the base of new local cultures like Mochica was stimulated, Lima, Is born, Wari and Tiwanaku.
The Wari culture developed the classic model of the Andean State with the sprouting of the cities of imperial cut, model that expanded by the north towards century VIII. This culture along with the Tiwanaquense managed to superpose itself to the others until aims of century IX. from then, new imperial states of regional reach throughout the $andes (like Chimú) with the development of States with greater territorialidad are elevated. Of between these señoríos it emphasizes the one of the Incas, who towards century XV annexed all the Andean towns between the rivers Maule and Ancasmayo, reaching an area near 3 million of km², today located in the territories of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina and Chile, conforming what today Inca knows itself like the Empire. Its capital was the Cusco, located in the Peruvian mountain range. In addition to its military power, they emphasized in architecture, constructing magnificent structures like ciudadela of Machu Picchu.
- Climate Although its Earth location, in the strip of the tropical latitudes of the South hemisphere, would have to give him characteristic of the rainy very warm tropical in all the territory as it occurs in Eastern the amazonian plain and yungas, the certain thing is that in Peru thanks to geographic factors the great microclimate range is pronounced, many of which they are possible to be obervar in less than 2 hours of route.
The first factor is the make to be located underneath the equatorial line and over the Tropic of Capricorn, granting to him a sun and tropical and/or subtropical atmosphere to all the Peruvian region. The second factor is the mountain range of the $andes (very rough and elevated in this American region South) that atreviesa the territory of the south to north. The third factor is the influence of the cold ocean current of Humboldt, who pronounces in the norcentral and South coast with a reduction in the annual temperature in ten degrees Celsius and the almost total precipitation absence. Finally, the fourth factor is the warm current of the Boy, who pronounces in the North coast every ten years with an impact in the climate and precipitations at global level. These factors cause a series of microclimates within the Peruvian territory.
