Editing Túpac Amaru (section)

== Legacy ==
Historian El Inca Garcilaso De La Vega claimed that [[Philip II of Spain|King Philip II]] disapproved of the public execution of Túpac Amaru. Túpac Amaru's death in 1572 has generated great interest centuries after. 

Relatively little is known about Túpac Amaru, but this has not prevented his death from becoming a symbol of power to those in the region. Public figures such as Andean rebel leader Jose Gabriel Condorcanqui resonated with Túpac Amaru ideology, so much so that he changed his name to Tupac Amaru II. Despite Túpac Amaru's short life and tragic death his legacy precedes him especially among the Peruvian community.

Primary school number 239 in [[Warsaw]] ([[Mirów, Warsaw|Mirów]]), had been named in honor of Túpac Amaru, but it closed in 2001.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://tustolica.pl/ruina-szkoly-przy-zlotej-tu-krecono-czterdziestolatka_64376 |title=Ruina szkoły przy Złotej - tu kręcono "Czterdziestolatka" |website=tustolica.pl}}</ref> Rapper [[Tupac Shakur|Tupac Amaru Shakur]] was named after [[Túpac Amaru II]].<ref>{{cite magazine |last1=Bruck |first1=Connie |title=The Takedown of Tupac |url=https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1997/07/07/the-takedown-of-tupac |access-date=10 August 2020 |magazine=[[The New Yorker]] |date=30 June 1997}}</ref>
