The elves were the first civilization to inhabit these lands. Even though they remain the only civilization worthy of the na, humans have since developed their proto-civilization here in an extrely invasive manner. Although these lands were given to humans by so kings of the past as a token of “friendship”, you do not consider these actions legitimate, especially since they ultimately yielded nothing but intrusive and utterly ungrateful neighbors.
It was therefore only fair to levy so taxes, however unintentional, on these illegal occupants. You have thus decided to redistribute wealth more equitably, in your own favor as the self-proclaid representative of the elven people. This does not an, however, that you would not redistribute your own people's wealth to yourself if you deed it necessary: after all, those who allow it to happen accept it and are consequently compromised, thus calling down just punishnt upon them.
