Vaca de Castro usurped power after the assassination of one man with this name. That murder was in revenge for two brothers with this surname, Hernando and Gonzalo, winning at Las Salinas against Diego de Almagro. Gonzalo also led a revolt against Blasco NÃºÃ±ez Vela for attempting to enforce the New Laws under Charles V. Another man with this surname served under Balboa and briefly served as mayor of Panama City. He was later offered a ransom room filled with gold by a ruler he would convert to Christianity and then strangle to death, Atahualpa. For 10 points, give the surname of Francisco, the Spanish conqueror of the Inca Empire.
