#1 Nobody stole anything because nobody owns land anyway.
Laws supposing the ownership are only worth something as long as there is someone to enforce them.
The natives had no more right to the land than the Ainu had to Nippon, or the Romans to Gaul.
Even then, the natives were always migratory and never settled in one place for long. They considered ownership an absurd concept
