What steps were taken by Rhodes to colonise Zimbabwe?

Cecil Rhodes took several key steps to colonize Zimbabwe, then known as Southern Rhodesia, in the late 19th century. He founded the British South Africa Company (BSAC) in 1889, which facilitated the annexation of land through treaties and military force. Rhodes also promoted settler Immigration and established a system of governance that favored British interests, effectively displacing local populations. Additionally, his vision of a "Cape to Cairo" railway underscored his ambition to control the region economically and politically.
