On this day in 1861, in order to finance the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Revenue Act, imposing the first federal income tax in U.S. history.

<u> Explanation: </u>

The main aim of the taxation is for the finance of war effort. An act called Internal Revenue Act was formulated by the congress in the 1862 which formed a governing body called Bureau of Internal Revenue who will take care of the collection of taxes.

The money collected in the form of taxes has reduced the burden of the government war spending but on the other side it has affected the livelihood of the people in America.

The mixed response from the general public has paved way for the conflict in the society and led to the unrest. But on the other hand the revenue collected from the taxation is used for policy related projects and urban infrastructure development.

Athens used this, and by making products from both of these trees, olive oil from the olive trees, and wine from the wine trees, they were making a lot of wealth because of this products were in high demand and not many places had the conditions for growing these trees and making products from them. Also Athens was very active in the sea trade and had contacts all over the Mediterranean, and that just opened up a larger market for their products.
