    The document discusses the history of taxation in the Philippines. It describes how taxation began under Spanish colonial rule as "tributos" or tributes collected from Filipinos to develop the islands. When the Americans gained control in 1898, their aim was to make the economy self-sufficient by generating revenue from taxes. Initially they followed the Spanish taxation system with some modifications, later replacing the "Urbana" tax with land tax, though land titles in rural areas were often disordered.
