Answer:

care for the native people

Explanation:

The encomienda system was a socioeconomic institution through which a group of individuals were obliged to compensate another in work, kind or otherwise, to supposedly enjoy a good or a benefit that they had received. The institution of the clientele was established in Roman Europe from the Low Empire until the beginning of the Modern Age. Thus, there was a dependency relationship by which the stronger gave protection to the weaker in exchange for committing to keep loyalty and deliver certain services.
