Etymology Corner 📚
The term "tax" comes from Latin "taxare" meaning "to assess." In Vietnamese, "thuế đất" (land tax) literally translates to "earth fee" - quite poetic for a not-so-poetic payment!

The Math Behind the Money 🧮

Where:
- Distribution Coefficient = Building Footprint ÷ Total Apartment Area

Did You Know? 🤔

Real-World Example 🏠
Let's calculate tax for a typical apartment:
- Apartment size: 100m²
- Building footprint: 1,000m²
- Total building area: 20,000m²
- Land price: 10M VND/m²
Result: Much less than you'd expect because of the distribution coefficient!
