A payment to a conquering army or king is often referred to as tribute. This payment can take the form of money, goods, or services and is typically made by a defeated state or region to acknowledge the authority of the conqueror, ensure peace, or avoid further conflict. Tribute systems have historically been used to maintain control over territories and to secure loyalty from subjugated peoples.
