Tribute taxes are payments made by one entity to another, often in a context of subjugation or economic dependence. Common types include fixed tribute, which is a set amount paid regularly; percentage tribute, based on a portion of revenue or resources; and labor tribute, where services or labor are provided instead of monetary payment. These taxes have historically been used by empires or governing powers to extract resources from conquered territories or subordinate states.
