The Northwest Ordinance is considered one of the most important laws in American history because it created the process for admitting states and expanding the country (C).
Passed in 1787, it recognized the sovereignty of the Federal government and allowed it to become bigger and bigger by creating entirely new states in the west, instead of enlarging the thirteen states which already existed. This resulted in the creation of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin in the early nineteenth century.
Does it show a pyramid or anything?
It's C, because feds are for the, powerful big federal union centralized "american" national government.
This contradicts D, so it can not be D, since feds were NOT the kind of people to say. "Hey stop !!! The American government is bullying my Virginia." No virigina does not have soveringy in the eyes of feds. The USA is the powerful nation holding the states - The alliance of states is stronger than the individual power of states.
It's important to recognize that some colonists and early Americans did not see them selves as together as one. " We are not Americans as a nation, but only a region." Like Europe with all their different states and nations.
It also says all past " But if the union...." Obvious for what I think.
Some white abolitionists worried about the effect free African Americans would have on society. The American Colonization Society then planned to send free African Americans to Africa to start new lives.
HOPE THIS HELPED!!! XD
