Why can control over Javas teak forests be linked with maritime empire?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because teak supplied strong, durable timber for ships

Teak was strong, durable, and relatively resistant to the effects of water, making it highly useful for shipbuilding. Naval and trading vessels supported Dutch colonial power and overseas trade, so controlling Java’s teak forests had strategic value for a maritime empire. Option B is incorrect because salt was not produced from teak. Exam tip: link colonial forest control with shipbuilding, trade, and naval power.
