Seems to be mostly a noun: lost territory.


2.
a) to lose territory

但成也土地、敗也土地,海南近年發展休閒觀光,為求開發而大舉徵地,農業台商失地千萬畝,面臨被迫「打包回台」的困局。
But, to paraphrase an idiom, live by the land, die by the land. In recent years Hainan has been moving forward with plans to develop its tourism and leisure industries, and the local government has been reclaiming vast amounts of land that had been leased to Taiwanese. Do Hainan’s Taiwanese agribusiness operators have any options for the future?

b) lost territory

預定2018年完成的「東協加日本」自由貿易市場,則有利於他們收復被中國搶去的日本失地,
The company further anticipates that the completion of the ASEAN Plus Japan accord (expected in 2018) will help it recover territory lost to Chinese manufacturers in the Japanese market.

中華民國不僅收復了東北4省以及台澎失地,也協助韓國與越南獨立,
The ROC recovered the lost territories of Manchuria, Taiwan, and the ­Penghu Islands, and stated its support for the independence of Korea and Vietnam.

最风光的那次是小日本投降后,国军准备进城收复失地。
