Captain James Cook's voyages were primarily funded by the British government, specifically the Royal Navy. His first voyage (1768-1771) was commissioned by the Royal Society and supported by King George III, who sought to explore the Pacific and observe the transit of Venus. Subsequent voyages were also backed by the British government, reflecting the nation's interest in exploration and expansion during that era.
