Native people were being brutalized and oppressed under this system. Many were literally worked to death. Missionaries there had become involved in trying to stop this abuse of native peoples. Queen Isabella did not want the natives treated as slaves and viewed them as a free and independent people. As a result of the abuse, the encomienda system was abolished by the Spanish crown.

What was the long-term consequence of spain abolishing the encomienda system?

The encomienda system was important to the Spanish because it was the first major system of government set up on the New World. However, by 1970, the many rebellions and the discontentment of the encomenderos were about to tear Spain's New World empire apart. If they hadn't abolished it, Spanish America would have reverted to a continent controlled by various warlords. Because they abolished it, they were able to hold onto their empire for much longer.
