There has to be land and people, and the affairs of the land has to be governed by the people who live on it.
Thank you!

@kkfengdao,
Needs wider clarification regarding what you are trying to say.For instance, by land do you mean a tract or area of ground / country or nation.

In either case I would use:
the affairs of the land HAVE to be governed

if talking about a country or nation:
people who live IN it.
