The Northwest Ordinance of 1787 (or the Northwest Ordinance, as it is now referred) helped the US grow by creating the first organized territory of the United States, the Northwest Territory. This territory contained land from the Great Lakes to west of the Ohio River and east of the Mississippi River. The Ordinance also abolished slavery in the new territory, which helped lead the way for further growth as a slave-free nation. The ordinance also created Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, and Michigan.
The United States created the Northwest Territory under the Northwest Ordinance of 1787. The first Settlement in Ohio was in Marietta. It was formed by the Ohio Company of Associates, which had been formed by a group of American Revolutionary War veterans.
the northwest ordinance of 1787 affeted education by stating that it shall forever be encouraged in the territories and that a certain percentage of all sales within the territories shall go to fund public schooling within the territory. this, however led to an extremely loccalized standard of shool funding. a poor area, which doesn't sell much would have a much poorer(and lower standards) school than a merchant hub which has a better funded school.
