In the 1400s and 1500s, Peru was the centre of the powerful ancient Inca Empire. The Inca emperor lived in the now-famous site Machu Picchu. Spain took control of Peru in the 16th century and ruled until 1821. It is for this reason that Spanish is the main official language of Peru.
在15世纪和16世纪,秘鲁是强大的古印加帝国的中心。印加皇帝住在如今著名的马丘比丘遗址。西班牙在16世纪控制了秘鲁,一直统治到1821年。正是由于这个原因,西班牙语是秘鲁的主要官方语言。
