Maybe it means that there’s a difference between how much land they own or something. It says there was a difference between the amount of land they occupied and the amount of land they couldn’t control. So maybe they didn’t own/have a lot of land but there was a lot of land they couldn’t get to/take over etc. or maybe this situation could be vice versa so they have a ton of land but only a little isn’t “controlled” let me know if this helps sorry if it’s confusing I’m just guessing based on the context clues :)

Answer: I think it's profit from it's colonies. I hope it helps and I hope I'm not wrong.
Abuse in power and oppression, unquestionably, leads to conflict. During the Currency Act of 1764, Great Britain started taxing all paper goods, and other everyday goods to the colonies. These taxes were unjust and not fair. Britain abused their power by forcing these taxes upon them without consent and/or their say in it. This leads to debt and angry people, which leads to riots and destruction. Upon that, the people took sides, some were ok with these acts, believing that they were fair. This created more conflict between the people of the colonies. Wars break out because of disagreements, which can also lead to more debt and anger. This cruel oppression also emerged the famous, well-known saying of "No Taxation without Representation". This meant that they didn't want to be taxed without representation in the British parliament. These are one of many ways that abuse in power and oppression leads to conflict.
