That plot of land is the property of the local population that fought to have its ownership.
It is those exact borders that enable your luxurious lifestyle today. They separate your civilization and resources from others, so you and your children can enjoy them.
You might disagree and prefer to enable the flooding of your nation because you are kind hearted and see future optimistically. You will still live comfortably even as streets are on fire, your next generation will be the one to suffer and then be forced to leave. They will conquer some other place with a naive or weak native population and so the same cycle repeats itself.
This happened to my family on the previous generation. My mother was in favor of open borders and freedom. They got kicked out by the next outsider group who later took over their land by force. Even though she lost everything, even as an old lady she still doesn't understand why they were so violent even as she stretched out her hand to help. Reality is a bitch.
