4.Discuss any civil liberties enjoyed by residents in the Northwest Territory in advance of the residents in the original states. Name at least five.

5.In 1790, approximately 100,000 white settlers lived beyond the Appalachian Mountains. By 1818, the population west of the Appalachians had climbed to two million. The growth of this region can in part be attributed to provisions in the Northwest Ordinance. How did each provision facilitate settlement of the western territory?

6.Using this information, name three reasons why Americans choose to move to the Northwest Territory.

The Confederation Congress passed the Northwest Ordinance in 1787 to encourage western migration. Powerful land companies made western expansion a business venture. Speculators purchased cheap lands that they hoped to sell at a high profit. To lure settlers, territorial leaders developed a political framework to protect liberty and property. They secured for settlers in the West religious freedom, protection against cruel and unusual punishment, and a government unable to seize land for the public good without first offering the owner just compensation. The Ordinance of 1787 also prohibited slavery. However, its framers compromised with slaveholders when they  approved a fugitive slave law to force the return of runaway slaves. A controversy surfaced over how to apply Article 6, which both banned and enforced slavery. Leaders in the territory, however, successfully made the article a gradual emancipation law. The Northwest Territory is appropriate for studying American history at the national and state level and for examining critical issues in civics and government.
