Administrative history
A permanent “Navy Royal” emerged during the reign of Henry VIII (1509-1547). In the 19th century, Royal Navy ships were heavily involved in the colonial phase in the development of what became British Columbia in carrying out the hydrographic surveys that opened coastal waters to navigation, in a constabulary role, and in providing a presence that backed British and subsequently Canadian sovereignty.
