Australia
The Australians took the aborigines land for the same reasons the U.S. took over the native American's land. They wanted it.
it depends on which group
The Aborigines are spiritually linked to the land. They have a god who created people and the surrounding environment. They are a very religious people.
The "Dispersal" of aborigines is a polite term for violently removing aborigines from their land, often with genocide, for the sake of the development of that land. This happened quite frequently for the first century of Australian history until 1838 when the first instance of punishment for murdering aborigines was carried out for the Massacre at Myall creek.

Settlers wishing to take their land.

No. The early European explorers of Australia did not see the need to seek permission to travel through the indigenous people's land. They had no concept that the Aborigines were the original custodians of the land. Mitchell was one of the worst, in that everything he did indicated he was out to conquer the land. Although Mitchell did respect the skills of the Aborigines, he did not respect their "ownership" or believe he needed permission to travel through their land.
Aborigines were one of the first people who lived in Australia. Indigenous (native) Australians were dispossessed of their land, despised for their culture, and marginalized, abused and murdered.
