This study aims to understand the important of history as the required input for a tax administration to achieve greater revenue generation. In achieving this, a case study was conducted on the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) Nigeria. The study collected data using face-to-face interviews on ten FIRS tax officers and the data was analyzed using thematic analysis.
