What are the 3 Kinds of encomienda?

Answer 1

The three kinds of encomienda are the personal encomienda, where a Spanish encomendero was granted the labor and tribute of Indigenous people in exchange for their protection and Christianization; the territorial encomienda, which involved the right to collect tribute from a specific territory; and the collective encomienda, where a group of Indigenous people was assigned to an encomendero, often leading to exploitation and harsh treatment. Each type was part of a system that aimed to facilitate Spanish colonization and economic gain at the expense of Indigenous populations.
