Because they lived here hundreds and hundreds of years before we were colonized by Britan. Britan found the land and claimed it as theirs because they were 'civalized' and spoke English. The aborigionals were "barbarians" and apparently had no right over the land because they weren't English. We know now this isn't true but back then, the English, French and Spanish all seemed to own/want to own/thought they had the rights to everything.
