Answer:

B. Sectional tensions would be increased because slavery was prohibited in the new states.

Explanation:

Northwest Ordinance was adopted by the US Congress in 1787 in relation to the so-called Old Northwest or Northwest Territory. In the absence of state unity after independence and the extreme economic and political weakness of the central government, Congress established the republican system throughout the North-West Territory, secured the elimination of feudal relations (prohibited majorate), prohibited slavery and forced labor. Ordonance guaranteed the right to private property. It provided for the formation of three to five new states, and until the finishing the procedure of their establishment, the entire Northwest remained under Congress. The Ordonance was of historical importance, setting a serious precedent for new territories.

Were the terms of the Treaty of Versailles fair and justified.??

Fantom [35]

If grade 10 history serves me correctly the Treaty of Versailles actually set the course for WW2 to happen. The Treaty has Germany claim full responsibility for the damages caused by the war and had them paying absolutely huge reparations. This caused them to be producing currency at an extremely increased rate leading to less value in money. This in a way ended up causing the depression that allowed Adolf Hitler to rise up from. (businesses couldn’t afford to stay open, people lost their jobs and couldn’t afford to live.) one of the first things he did was stop paying the reparations. Soooo I think the answer you are looking for is no but I’m not sure the context your assignment is looking for. Hope this helps!
