The encomienda system was a type of slavery. Rich men were gifted with parcels of land and the people that lived on them. Generally, the rich men were supposed to take care of their slaves and teach them about God. This rarely happened. The rich men usually forced their slaves to work hard on plantations and expect little more in return than harsh treatment.
