Highland American Empires: Kingdoms in the Clouds (3 in 1) explores the rise, achievements, and legacies of three remarkable civilizations that flourished in the rugged highlands of South America: Tiwanaku, the Wari Empire, and the Tairona Civilization. These cultures adapted to extreme altitudes, developing sophisticated cities, engineering feats, and complex societies that influenced later Andean and Mesoamerican civilizations.   
Journey into the world of Tiwanaku, a spiritual and political center near Lake Titicaca, known for its massive stone structures, intricate carvings, and advanced understanding of agriculture and irrigation. Its influence spread across the Andean region, shaping cultural and religious traditions that endured for centuries.   
Discover the Wari Empire, one of the first true imperial powers of the Andes, which established extensive road networks, administrative centers, and urban planning techniques that prefigured the later Inca civilization. Their mastery of terraced farming and state organization allowed them to dominate the region for hundreds of years.   
Uncover the Tairona Civilization, a lesser-known yet sophisticated society that thrived in the mountainous regions of present-day Colombia. Renowned for their breathtaking gold craftsmanship, elaborate stone cities, and harmonious integration with the surrounding environment, the Tairona left a legacy that still resonates among their modern descendants, the Kogi people.   
From sacred temples to vast road systems, these highland empires demonstrated remarkable resilience and ingenuity. This book is perfect for history enthusiasts seeking to explore the hidden civilizations that once ruled the mountain landscapes of the Americas.

Definition of Off-Grid Living Off-grid living is a lifestyle in which individuals or communities rely on their own resources to meet their energy, water, food, and shelter needs, rather than depending on public utilities and services. The term "off-grid" refers to the absence of a connection to the electrical grid, but the concept extends to all aspects of life that can be self-sustaining 
The appeal of off-grid living stems from several factors. For some, it is a desire for independence and self-reliance, a longing for a simpler and more sustainable way of life, and a conscious effort to reduce their impact on the environment. For others, it may be a financial decision, as the cost of connecting to public utilities can be high in remote areas. Whatever the motivation, off-grid living requires a significant investment of time, effort, and resources, but can offer many benefits 
Off-grid living involves the use of renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydro, and biofuels, to generate electricity. These systems can be designed to meet the specific needs of the household or community, and are often combined with energy storage systems such as batteries or pumped hydro storage. By relying on renewable energy sources, off-grid living can help reduce greenhouse gas 2 emissions and environmental degradation associated with fossil fuel based energy systems
