Trogdor didn’t even collect taxes. He terrorized the peasants just for the love of the game.

Just be like that one ruler who just requested one bird from each house, alive, only to tie some sort of flammable sack tied to their legs and set it on fire before letting them free.
I wanna say it was a Bulgarian ruler. Gonna have to fact check this, so BRB!

To be more specific, the legend says she did the bird thing after a prolonged siege against the capital city of that tribe (drevlians), that was also on the territory of modern Ukraine. We had sort of a collection of city states with princes at the head fighting among each other for quite a bit.

That’s how subsistence farmers were dragged into the market economy. Colonists liked doing that.
But this was also done in the past for military campaigns. Provisioning an army is hard work. It’s easier if soldiers can buy stuff with gold along the way and the king demanding the gold back from the population. It’s the more realistic way currency use formed instead of the “suppose we want to barter” story. Villagers not going along with the program got torched.
