It was owned on some level by the native people, really, but I do get your point all the same and agree.
North America could in no way have been declared terra nullius, and although Australia had been, it's a hotly controversial subject. The land was owned by someone, and to some degree (especially in certain areas) it was conquered.

Personally I hate people who troll or laugh at someone for being trolled. I'm with Bob, I enjoy arguing and being passionate about something
