Spanish settlers believed they had the right to demand taxes or labor from indigenous peoples in the Americas because they saw them as inferior and in need of guidance. This belief was rooted in the concept of the Encomienda system, where indigenous people were seen as wards of the Spanish crown and were required to provide tribute in exchange for protection and religious instruction. The exploitation of indigenous labor and resources was justified by the idea of bringing civilization and Christianity to the natives.
