Land grants were legal provisions that allowed governments or authorities to allocate parcels of land to individuals, organizations, or institutions, often to encourage settlement, agricultural development, or infrastructure projects. In the United States, land grants were commonly issued in the 19th century to promote westward expansion, with notable examples including the Homestead Act, which provided settlers with land in exchange for development. These grants played a significant role in shaping the country's landscape and economic growth. However, they often disregarded the rights of Indigenous peoples and led to displacement and conflict.
