Why Government Revenue per capita is higher in Netherlands than in Germany?

In 2023 budget revenue in Germany was 392.2€bn ([source](https://www.bundesfinanzministerium.de/Content/EN/Standardartikel/Press_Room/Publications/Monthly_Report/Key_Figures/2024/2024-02-federal-budget.html))and in Netherlands was 445.9€bn ([source](https://www.cbs.nl/en-gb/figures/detail/84114ENG)). Germany has about 83 million people and Netherlands 17 million. Why is it so high in NL or so low in DE? Is there more taxes in NL or not all taxes are included in DE because its federation?
