Because of a convoluted taxing system when it comes to income tax Vithinjans pay a very sizeable tax rate which looks way less to the majority who is uninformed of the details of the taxing system. Vithinja has a pretty standard tax rate on inheritance and a huge tax rate on land ownership that is not owned by a union. | Taxes in Vithinja are collected from the unions by the unions with the exception of the military tax, which is collected from everyone.

Vithinja has one of the highest rates of firearm ownership, with over 125 firearms for every 100 people. | Because of the remnants of a strong warrior culture Vithinja has always had a loose view of weapon ownership.
