> And fwiw, the literal translation of terra nullius isn't "nobody's land" it's "empty land". Is it an Italian term or something? In Latin it would be "land of no one". Terra is nominative (alternatively ablative or vocative, but that's unlikely here), nullius is genitive; there's no parsing in which nullius could be in agreement with terra, and even if they were in agreement, nullus doesn't mean "empty" (terra nulla would be more like "no land", definitely not a land that exists but is characterized by emptiness). If it's Italian though I'd have to take your word for it; I don't speak that language.
