He taxes his vassals who then tax their minor nobles who then tax the merchants and serfs. There is normally no set percentage. The amount taken at all levels depends on the current needs such as war or famine or how greedy the King is. Client states such as the Haradrim would also pay him directly to maintain the peace treaty.

Get on it, Hollywood
flat tax rates are incredibly regressive and not something Aragorn would have instituted. He definitely would have seen the benefit of a progressive tax system
Unregulated migration, borderline open borders, hordes of Orcs are horse-carriaged in for the benefit of extreme economical growth, middle earth chuds will complain they will ruin the country and be a net negative even though the latter aren't willing to work the menial, bottom of the barrel jobs
Probably similar to Byzantium, that other slowly declining empire. In theory it was an imperial bureaucracy, but in practice more like feudalism seen in the rest of Europe with regional magnates filling high offices themselves or with relatives. They would auction off the right to collect taxes in an area, tax collectors would generally operate within the law, to avoid expensive lawsuits and angering their Lord, however they would use whatever leverage they had to squeeze the local populace.
Taxes were necessary to fund the military, however they were also deeply unpopular compared to the more ad-hoc methods of their neighbors which relied more on local custom or tacit agreements between rulers. The Turks offered protection to this or that town or city rebelling against this or that unpopular Emperor and quickly found access to Mediterranean wealth and resources while the cities enjoyed autonomy as the Turks were more open to delegate. It is one of the reasons Byzantium haemorrhaged territory to the Ottomans.
You rescind taxes for a few years while the commoners rebuild. All the swag you looted from Isengard and Minas Morgul will fill your coffers anyway plus you'll be able to take any surviving orcs/hillman as slaves for your work gangs. Then you invade/cccupy Harad and force them to pay reparations for their part in the war. Should be time for an economic boom at that point so taxes can remain low while Aragorn enjoys his popularity as the hero king at least until the sequel trilogy turns him into a greedy despot attempting to create an even more powerful Ring.
They don't pay the orcs money, they are all working for free. Some of their arms and armour and provided by the State, but that's mostly for their elite soldiers.
??? Internet can't exist because they don't have computers and electricity? How are they supposed to do anything why do you imagine them browsing them the internet?
My guess is a VAT along with a progressive income tax for those earning 250k Castars and more a year
Taxes exception to elves.
Flat tax rate of 15%
Economic benefits for darwes that relocate in Gondor.
AM hat about the Haradrim refugees????
About 25%.
considering the inspiration of feudal Europe, I would guess a flat tax on goods production

Everyone gets a bonus except Parker.
orc slave economy with centralised production
gondor ruled over one city with no immediate farmland
it's surrounded by farmland
Nope. Doesn't look very fertile either
They grow dwarf wheat. It's everywhere in that image.

Gondorian taxes to fund the protection and defense of the Shire
Did the Hobbit's know the E.R.U Liberty was a Gondorian ship before they shot it down?
Aragorn was a righteous ruler. There were no taxes. There was no usury. He was a devoted acolyte of the Gottfried Feder school of economics.
He levied a flat rate of 6.75% on gondorians making more than 50k a year, a flat rate of 1.3% was levied on everyone else, except for gondorians who served in the war

Based elves leaving middle earth to avoid taxes
>elves leave middle earth to avoid overtaxation

Get on it, Hollywood
>female elves are turned into public sex slaves

jesus christ turn off the PC and go outside

Big beats are the best get high all the time
Universal flat tax rate country wide
flat tax rates are incredibly regressive and not something Aragorn would have instituted. He definitely would have seen the benefit of a progressive tax system
0% taxes, that's what made him popular.
what was his immigration policy?
unironically high chance of genocide
No blacks (numenoreans)
Unregulated migration, borderline open borders, hordes of Orcs are horse-carriaged in for the benefit of extreme economical growth, middle earth chuds will complain they will ruin the country and be a net negative even though the latter aren't willing to work the menial, bottom of the barrel jobs
He raised the quotas for hobbit and let them assume key positions in Gondor's banking system. They deserved it after the Scouring of the Shire.

>complains about tax policy of LOTR
>has villains invent armies out of thin air with no money
They don't pay the orcs money, they are all working for free. Some of their arms and armour and provided by the State, but that's mostly for their elite soldiers.
>They do it for free
So all Gondor had to do was invent the internet and the war would be over, all the orcs would become jannies.

Sorry, Palantirnet. Sauron's Man showed us the cost of not using a VPN.
>Has the right to be king solely because he's decended from the guy who was king 3000 years ago
Defend this.
everybody in Middle-Earth with the exception of the hobbits are monarchists.
Probably pretty lenient, he’s a genuine and noble man. Would he even tax the people?
