Definición

  • The Northwest Ordinance of 1787 was the blueprint followed by Congress to form new states from the trans-Mississippi west. Although originally applicable to the territory north of the Ohio River, the ordinance established a process in which a territory became a state coequal with the original thirteen states while concurrently guaranteeing rights for U.S. colonists.
