This system of estates in land developed from the feudal system.The feudal system never went away,
it just evolved.
Those that actually OWN the land will have a superior ranking title likely Allodial, & hence a superior claim.
We are all just feudal tenants paying 4 an estate.
We pay our tithe to the mortgage provider rather than the land owner- maybe they are 1 & the same at some level.
