Explanation:

Income tax is an internationally prevailing tax on income that is levied by a state (or a lower government body) on persons and enterprises, where each taxpayer is required to pay a certain percentage of their income to the government.

The United States of America is a special country with regard to income taxes: not only does the federal government levy income tax, but also lower government bodies such as individual states and even municipalities are allowed to levy income taxes.
