Exactly, which is why it's never about land. It's about resources and security.
those resources just happen to be on or in the land and in order to use that land they need to secure it

The Aussies once went to war with the entire Ostrich population of down under for some reason, but I dont think Ostriches care about land so it cant have been over that.
Plus who the **** would fight over Australian soil anyway? You can keep your giant ass spiders that have no bidness being the size of my ****ing hand but are for some reason. -

british philosopher and polymath thomas hobbes described human existence as a " war of all against all", so there's a battle fought without land explicitly
Agreed (though Hobbes wasn't the first who said something like that).
But true, the neighbour's
house-car-boat-dog-lawnmower-wife-account
is also a
'piece'
of land (territory)
that should be conquered. Freedom from the neighbours!
