The correct answer is A. It prohibited slavery in the Northwest Territory.

Explanation:

The Northwest Ordinance was approved in 1787 to establish the Northwest territory and laws that applied to it. This covered states such as Ohio, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Indiana. Additionally, the Ordinance established the borders of this territory or states that were part of it, ratified the sovereignty, and established a local government.

Also, the ordinance ratified natural rights for all those in the territory, and therefore prohibited slavery and any similar practices. Due to this, after the ordinance, many slaves from the South scaped to this territory to gain their freedom, which contributed to the issue of slavery and related conflicts. Thus, the statement that is true about this ordinance is "It prohibited slavery in the Northwest Territory."

What did the Pan-African Congress accomplish?
tangare [24]

The correct answer is - c. It helped a few African colonies gain independence from their rulers.

The Pan-African Congress was taking place with the purpose of making Africa a free continent, to help the Africans have their own nations, to be free, to have their rights respected. The goal of the Pan-African Congress started to become reality after 1945. Initially few countries gained independence, without bloodshed, with the Pan-African Congress being very influential in that process, which made the organization a reputation as a peacemaker and peacekeeping organization. That initial gain of independence of some countries in Africa was followed by a chain reaction, where one by one, all of the countries in Africa gained independence.
