What were the Encomiendas in the Virreinato de Nueva España?

I- The organization of the territory originated from the encomiendas, which were granted preferably to those conquerors who participated in the conquest of Mexico, and therefore the encomenderos had absolute power and were responsible for organizing the work of their inhabitants in their respective demarcations.
II- The Spaniards divided the land and, along with the land, the Indians who lived on it. Each lot of land and Indians belonging to a settler constituted an encomienda. The settler or encomendero had to protect and instruct all his encomendados in Christianity, and they were obliged to work for the encomendero.
III- The abuses committed by the encomenderos were denounced by some missionaries, among whom stood out Fray Bartolomé de las Casas, a great defender of the Indians.
IV- The Laws of the Indies protected the Indians against the abuses of the encomenderos.
