Answer: Encomienda was a system that was characteristic of the colonization of a country.
Explanation:
Specifically, it is a system used by the Spanish Crown to reward its colonizers with several people from conquered Indigenous areas. This system was most used during the Spanish colonization of the United States and the Philippines. Spain considered the conquered areas as its vassal territories. Several Indigenous people, therefore, had to work in the interest of the Spanish Crown. In return, they were promised protection from other tribes. The natives would thus pay their "taxes" in various goods such as food, metals and other necessities. Therefore, Encomienda represents the Spanish system of taxation of the conquered areas.

The correct answer for this question is A) It explains that at least one son must join the church (according to his dad)
The wording of this paragraph leads us to believe that the expression ''as the tithe of his sons'' demonstrates <u><em>how his father intended for at least one of his sons to serve the church</em></u>. This phrase denotes that none of his brothers chose to serve the church and had instead chosen different paths which led his dad to offer him as a last resource.
It could also imply the importance of church for his dad however thats entirely subjective.
This paragraph does not mention his brother's intelligence and definitely does not imply that he does not have a choice hence the wording ''my father intending to devote me (...)'' meaning his dad tried to offer him but he later decided otherwise.
Hope this helps!
