Originally it was theirs in the time before feudalism. Feudal social structures arose when it became apparent that peasants couldn't protect their land anymore on their own.

Like in-fighting,civil war, desertion, etc. I want to be a merc/guard not attached to one guild how do I do that without the option to leave/desert? Time contracts consented to by both parties with promise of reward in specific amount?
Apep wrote:Imo, people claiming land on their own in medieval times has an example too. Mainly early medieval era, though, think about the migration period. Also it was quite common in East Europe aswell, especially in slavic regions. After the Saxons were conquered by the Franks, they simply moved on to the east and claimed land on their own instead of asking the Emperor about it.
