Wording issue

Hi, i would be grateful if you could tell me if the following sentence makes sense:

"This lesser land in which i live."

If this sentence does make sense can you tell me the meaning?

I want it to mean "inferior or less important land", but I would ideally like to keep the word "lesser" if possible. Only of course if it makes sense??

Many many thanks in advance.

It is correct as a noun phrase -- provided you capitalize I . It could be used as a subject or direct object, for example. Nevertheless, it is not a sentence.
