1. Each system developed as a way of ensuring labor for colonizers. The encomienda system was a system of labor in which Spanish colonizers were granted land and the right to extract tribute and forced labor from the Indigenous populations. Chattel slavery, on the other hand, involved the capture and forced labor of African slaves. Both systems were based on race and had long-term effects on the structure of societies in the Americas, as they created systems of racial hierarchy and inequality that persisted for centuries. The impact of these systems can still be seen today in the social, economic, and political structures of many countries in the Americas.
