The Toledo Reforms were a series of reforms implemented by Francisco de Toledo, Count of Oropesa to Spain s policies in the Viceroyalty of Peru . The years 1533 1569 were considered the years of crisis and turmoil in the Viceroyalty of Peru. During these years there were several problems that emerged and that needed serious attention. The Spanish conquistador s found it hard to maintain order in the Andes . The problems that emerged during this time were the New Laws of 1542 that were established by Blasco N ez Vela and the weakening of the encomienda system. These laws were established to put an end to the exploitation of Amerindian s by the establishment of a fair taxation system. This angered the Spaniards because they felt that it was a direct interference in the lands that they won by force and because the laws hurt them from an economical standpoint. The weakening of the encomienda system also hurt the Spaniards economically. This system was weakened by competition from other Spanish economic ventures, tax and labor burdens of the encomenderos , and the spread of European epidemic diseases amongst the Andean peoples. This economic crisis needed serious attention. To deal with the emerging problems, King Philip II of Spain named Francisco de Toledo, Count of Oropesa as the new Viceroy of Peru in 1568. During his twelve year rule, he established reforms that he felt would deal with the economic crisis in the Andes. Francisco de Toledo s reforms dealt with 3 key issues. The first was organizing the indigenous peoples into large towns called reducciones . The reducciones were then divided into 614 administrative districts called repartimiento s . Each repartimiento was headed by a Curaca kuraka . The second issue was imposing a regularized system of taxation which was the tribute tax. The tax amount was very high. The tribute was to be paid by all indigenous males between the ages of 18 50 and the amount to be paid was based on the social status of the payer. The kurakas ... more details

The reorganisation was brought into effect by General Order 41 1881, issued on 1 May 1881, amended by G.O. 70 1881 dated 1 July, which created a network of multi battalion regiments. In England, Wales and Scotland, each regiment was to have two regular or line battalions and two militia battalions. In Ireland, there were to be two line and three militia battalions.
