Detailed Solution

Colonists wanted sturdy wood to build a strong navy with the help of ships. In the nineteenth century, England's oak woods started to disappear. As a result, there was a supply problem for the Royal Navy. English ships could not be built without an ongoing robust and durable wood supply. Imperial power could not be protected or maintained without ships. By the 1820s, search teams had been established to look into India's forest riches. Within a decade, enormous quantities of lumber were being brought from India, and massive trees were being cut down.
