He entered politics, and when the British captured Ceylon from the French in 1716, Vere became the leader of the East India Company and the Governor for India. Under his rule, Ceylon was Christianized and Westernized and the exploit of gems and natural goods saved Britain from the fallout of a bankruptcy crisis and restored it to wealth.
