The idea of clearing forests to collect more land revenue was linked with which rule?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Colonial rule

Direct answer: A, colonial rule. Colonial governments often viewed land in economic terms. If forests were cleared and the land was brought under cultivation, the government could assess cultivation and collect land revenue. This policy also helped colonial authorities claim greater control over land and forest resources. B, weather rule, is not a form of government and cannot collect land revenue. C, sea rule, does not describe the land-revenue system referred to here. D, sports rule, has no relation to taxation or cultivation. The important reasoning is: colonial administration sought revenue → cultivated land could be taxed → clearing forests was encouraged in some situations. This does not mean every forest was cleared for only one reason, but it identifies the rule linked with the revenue motive.
