Without a coercive State the land would be distributed more evenly

The presence of a coercive Government means that the costs of protecting a piece of land are no different, regardless of the size. In a free market situation there would be natural costs to owning too great a piece of land because to protect it would be costly, there is a natural disincentive against being too greedy, with respect to land. The State removes this disincentive against being greedy over land ownership. Without the State, people would be less inclined to hoard an excessive quantity of land.
