The encomienda system was a Spanish colonial labor system that granted colonists the right to demand tribute and forced labor from Indigenous people in the Americas in exchange for protection and Christianization. It was important because it facilitated the extraction of resources and wealth from the colonies, significantly contributing to Spain's economic power during the colonial era. However, it also led to severe exploitation and decline of Indigenous populations, highlighting the brutal realities of colonialism. The system laid the groundwork for subsequent labor practices and attitudes towards Indigenous peoples in the Americas.

The Spanish implemented the encomienda system when they first arrived on the Caribbean island of Hispaniola. After they realized that the number of products to exploit were not as plentiful as they hoped, they went to Central (and South) America, where they carried on the encomienda system on the conquered minorities who helped them retrieve silver.
