Detailed Solution

The rulers needed taxes to maintain the safety of their territory. They frequently built enormous forts or high walls around their area and kept a large army. This required resources and money to keep running. As a result, the Raja of a territory levied taxes on farmers, artisans, herders, traders, hunters, and gatherers. These taxes were not required to be paid in cash. Instead, taxation was based on the work parameter. Farmers, for example, must pay 1/6 of the crop's value, while the rest can split their products or work one day per month for Raja.
