Many forest lands were destroyed throughout history for various reasons. In the Middle Ages to produce charcoal trees were cut down and put into a pile. Dirt was pack around the trees and a fire started. The person doing this would have to watch this burn for 2-3 days and manage the fire, but the end result was charcoal. I haven't read that farmers did take the bark off trees, but it would have been done to kill them so they could claim the land for crops.
It took too long to chop the tree down and cut it up. In order to get crops in quickly, they would kill the trees quickly so that the crop could get enough sun to grow. Then as they had time, they would cut the trees down for firewood and lumber.
So they could get more sunlight to the soil so their plants could grow.

no they don't
No, birch trees do not die when they lose their bark. While the bark of a birch tree is important for protection and nutrient transport, the tree can survive and continue to grow even if it loses its bark.
Trees have bark for protection. If the bark were to be torn off then, the tree would die faster and be prone to termites.
Bark beetles bore through the bark to eat the tasty nutrients in the inner bark known as the phloem and cambium layers. If they eat all the way around the tree, they will girdle the tree and the tree will die. Girdling cuts the trees food tubes and it will be unable to send nutrients up and down the trunk.
Trees die if a ring of bark is removed because it will stop water getting from the roots to the leaves.
