The answer is C. According to the chart, it is clear that Britain was seeking to build a huge war navy, a natural decision provided that Britain relied on raw materials shipped to its ports from its colonies all over the world, so that the maritime routes communicating Britain and its colonies overseas necessitated a large war fleet for protection. On the other hand, Russia had been discouraged from building a large military navy after its defeat in the Russo-Japanese War of 1905, so it focused on increasing its lands forces.
