    Three characteristics of the encomienda system were:

    -natives paid tributes to the conquistadors

    -conquistadors became trustees of the land

    -indigenous population got to keep their lands

    Explanation:

    The encomienda was an institution that the Castilians created in America to avoid the abuses that the colonizers inflicted on the natives, being a right granted by the monarch in favor of the encomendero, who received all the conquered peoples, in exchange for taking charge to collect the taxes and fees which the Indians had to pay to the monarchy. The encomendero had an obligation to ensure the welfare of the natives, both spiritually and earthly, ensuring their protection and Christian indoctrination. Encomiendas evolved into a system of forced labor for the natives for the benefit of Castilian or Creole commanders.
