Detailed explanation-1: -A tributary state is a term for a pre-modern state in a particular type of subordinate relationship to a more powerful state which involved the sending of a regular token of submission, or tribute, to the superior power (the suzerain).
Detailed explanation-2: -An empire made up of subordinate polities ("tributaries” or “tributary states") which provide regular goods, services, and honor ( tribute) to another polity that has conquered them. Comment: An example in the pre-modern world would be the Aztec empire.
Detailed explanation-3: -The “tribute” entailed a foreign court sending envoys and exotic products to the Chinese emperor. The emperor then gave the envoys gifts in return and permitted them to trade in China. Presenting tribute involved theatrical subordination but usually not political subordination.
