While details on the matter are still sketchy, land disputes are common in many towns across the country and are mainly caused by double allocations.
Sometimes, land barons will be fighting over control of the same piece of land and the affected land seekers will be automatically involved.
There have also been clashes between authorities and land seekers who would have been duped by corrupt land barons. Resultantly, thousands of houses have been demolished in the past.
