Europeans often believed that land was theirs for the taking due to a combination of economic interests, a sense of cultural superiority, and the doctrine of discovery, which justified colonization. They viewed the land as unclaimed or underutilized, disregarding the existing indigenous populations and their rights. This mindset was fueled by the desire for resources, expansion of territory, and the spread of Christianity, leading to widespread colonization and exploitation of various regions around the world.
