No man's land is a term for land that is not occupied or is under dispute between parties that will not occupy it because of fear or uncertainty. The term was originally used to define a contested territory or a dumping ground for refuse between fiefdoms. It is most commonly associated with the First World War to describe the area of land between two enemy trenches that neither side wishes to openly move on or take control of due to fear of being attacked by the enemy in the process.

Why was the area between enemy trenches called no man's land?
The area between trenches was called 'No-mans land'. This is because whenever a man was sent into no mans land it was basically a suicide mission because as soon as he stepped out of his trench he would be shot by the enemy. Because of everyone being shot as soon as they came out of their trench, no men were in that area and so it was called no mans land.
