ALL arguments over ownership come down to force.
This is how we wound up having nations - some group had more force than some other group. It continues to this day - war exists as the most obvious example of this but softer forces, such as the ability to demand and enforce sanctions also count.
In a wider sense, ALL law comes down to force, since without the ability to enforce(!) it, law is meaningless.
Put much more simply: people with nuclear weapons don't have to pay their parking tickets.
