I think they didn’t really have a judgement about who owned the land but had different tribes of different people, the different tribes might’ve had controversy against each other but that isn’t exactly known. Conflicts over the use and ownership of Native lands are not new. Land has been at the center of virtually every significant interaction between Natives and non-Natives since the earliest days of European contact with the indigenous peoples of North America. By the 19th century, federal Indian land policies divided communal lands among individual tribal members in a proposed attempt to make them into farmers. The result instead was that struggling tribes were further dispossessed of their land. In recent decades, tribes, corporations, and the federal government have fought over control of Native land and resources in contentious protests and legal actions, including the Oak Flat, the San Francisco Peaks Controversy, and the Keystone XL pipeline
Native Americans had a spiritual vision of Nature and could not conceive land ownership as something respectable. European forced the Natives to adapt gradually to their notion of private property and land ownership.
I think that when we get to the future, it will be better because a lot of it ill be mostly technology, and ya, i know that it sounds kinda bad, but we wont have as much pollution, so it could help the environment.
