The heavy payments that the Mongols imposed on Russia were called "tribute." This tribute was a form of taxation that required Russian principalities to pay in goods, money, or labor to the Mongol Empire, particularly during the period of Mongol rule known as the "Tatar Yoke." The burden of this tribute significantly affected the economic and political landscape of Russia during the 13th to 15th centuries.
