A person who advocates for or practices absolute land ownership free from feudal duties.
From allodial + -ist (one who practices or believes in). This term emerged during the transition from feudal to modern property systems, particularly in 19th-century legal and political debates about land reform and ownership.
Allodialists were the original property-rights activists, arguing that people deserved to own land outright rather than forever owing allegiance to nobles—their ideas directly influenced modern real estate law and the concept of owning your own home.
