The cut [edit]. Although American butchers may label a cut of meat London broil, the term does not refer to a specific cut of meat but to a method of preparation and cookery. Butchers may label top round steak or roast as London broil.
The Encomienda system is a system of tributary labor established in Spanish America. It was developed as a means of securing an adequate and cheap labor supply. The Encomienda was first used in the Moors of Spain and later was taken to the New World.
The changes did not stop forced labor in the Spanish colonies on the mainland, which took on a new guise under the repartimiento. In addition, in the West Indies, the colonists needed a new source of labor and began to import African slaves, joining the transatlantic slave trade.he Spanish colonies in the Caribbean were among the last to abolish slavery. While the British colonies abolished slavery completely by 1834, Spain abolished slavery in Puerto Rico in 1873 and in Cuba in 1866. On the mainland of Central and South America, Spain ended African slavery in the eighteenth century.
