From admin dashboard go to Localization/Taxes → Tax Zones - you will see this:
Tax Zones are sometimes known as Geo Zones and are defined here so you can set up different tax rates, payment options and shipping options for each Tax Zone - this will be done in later steps Set up Tax Rates, Set up Payment Options, Set up Shipping Options.
To explain using the default Phoenix install as an example - the default shop is located in Florida so only charges tax in Florida.
A Tax Zone has been created and named Florida - it could be named anything.
Click Details to see the areas included in this Tax Zone.
You will see Country = United States and Zone = Florida.
To explain using a shop located in a different country as an example where the shop only charges tax in its own country.
