Leibniz : Space is no more than the collection of spatial relations between objects in the world: "space is that which results from places taken together". Unoccupied regions are those that could have objects in them, and thus spatial relations with other places. space was an idealised abstraction from the relations between individual entities or their possible locations and therefore could not be continuous but must be discrete.

Isaac Newton : Space is independent of matter.
