What government are you talking about? The Amazon is in South America. The obvious answer would be colonization. The land is worth more to the Portuguese/Brazilians, whoever if it is inhabited, explored, and less dangerous. Obviously the discovery of natural resources is important economically, the discovery of people to enslave, crops to harvest, mapping the region, claiming more territory, there are alot of reasons why governments sponsor people inhabiting uninhabited regions, relax, use your brain and b.s.
