It seems to me that if a group of people did come across some new land and decide to vote on what to do with it, they'd immediately vote to subdivide it amongst themselves. Leave some bits as public land for roads and parks and other stuff, and subdivide the rest equally so that families can build their own houses and grow their own crops or whatever with confidence.

Of course within a few generations of inheritances and sales that equitable distribution of land will no longer look like that at all.

Hah. Obviously something like that wouldn't be allowed, since it would violate the rule of no land ownership to begin with.
