Give reasons why the Dutch East India Company (VOC) established a
refreshment station at the Cape in 1652.? (10)
The Dutch East India Company (VOC) established a refreshment station at the
Cape in 1652 for several compelling reasons. Firstly, the strategic geographical
location of the Cape made it an ideal midpoint for ships traveling between the
Netherlands and the VOC-controlled territories in the East. This allowed for a
convenient stopover for replenishing supplies, particularly fresh water and
provisions, crucial for long sea voyages during that era. Secondly, the necessity
arose from practical experiences, notably the stranding of the VOC ship Nieuwe
Haerlem in Table Bay in 1647.
