Joseph raised the booklet towards Joy, "You don't have to worry about this, I believe the rumors will soon subside."
"Right, your report also mentioned something about the tribes of Tunisia?"
"Yes, Your Highness." Upon hearing the word "tribes," a look of gloom appeared on Joy's face, "Because during the last major uprising, the tribes of Tunisia all sent out warriors, so they each claim they had a part in driving away the Imperial Guard and thus believe the government should give them generous treatment...
"Put simply, the larger tribes are not very proactive in enforcing government orders, and they even fall behind on their taxes."
Joseph knew he was putting it mildly, in reality, the indigenous tribes were disobedient and not paying taxes.
This was not surprising, not to mention the 18th century, even in 21st-century Africa, there are still a large number of tribes that operate independently with the government having no control over them whatsoever.
