Original Note:
The rights squatters enjoy today were originally brought over from British property law and were created to protect and distinguish those who owned and used land. We can see this in laws like the Homestead Act of 1862, which let settlers develop unclaimed land. https://www.lawdistrict.com/articles/squatter-rights#:~:text=The%20rights%20squatters%20enjoy%20today,let%20settlers%20develop%20unclaimed%20land.
