The encomienda system was similar to slavery in that it involved the forced labor of Indigenous people for the benefit of Spanish colonizers. Encomenderos were granted the right to extract labor and tribute from Indigenous communities, often under harsh conditions, resembling the exploitation seen in chattel slavery. While the encomienda system technically allowed for some rights and protections for Indigenous people, in practice, it often led to severe abuse and dehumanization, much like the experience of enslaved individuals.
