State, territory, land and real estate are not synonymous terms.
State is political. The concept involves ties between tribes of people, their relationship to other tribes of people, endless debate on who is number one and willingness to commit various forms of murder or genocide to settle the dispute.
Territory is a claim. When boundary markers are placed to define a territory it is the boundary markers that are owned and nothing else. Territory is generally attached to a municipality. When a State claims a territory the municipality involved is the Capital city.
Land is volume, a shape, geometrical, that does contain space but what else is included is a matter of belief. Water is not compatible with a definition of land because water can flow into a space and is just as likely to flow out. Also there is the problem of identification. One bucket of water looks the same as another bucket of water (although the bucket might look different). Things that fill up Land (space) that appear more material than water (minerals, trees, buildings) are the topic of ownership issues such as trespass, commerce, etc.
In a sense land is unclaimed space. Things that are unclaimed might be the topic of discovery. They are also a public nuisance and should be promptly abated by seizing them and posting a claim in a suitable manner such that the claim will be valid until a better claim is presented and costs incurred paid.
Real estate is a commercial concept that a bankrupt can purchase an interest in state, territory or land from another bankrupt or can rent a structure for commercial gain. Property tax is paid in many States on real estate and if the tax goes unpaid the obligation to pay the tax will be transferred to someone else delusional enough to participate in voluntary servitude.
