Question

The Constitutional Convention was called to address the problems that the United States faced under the Articles of Confederation. What was not a problem that led to the convention?
A) Shay's Rebellion

B) economic depression

C) fear of Civil War

D) the Northwest Ordinance

Answer 1

Of all the options given above, the only option which did not lead to the Constitutional Convention would have to be option D) the Northwest Ordinance since the ordinance occured while the convection was in session and that it did not cause any advert problem to the U.S. 

Shay's Rebellion was a huge marker that the Articles of Confederation were too weak to protect the U.S. The articles also caused immense economic depression and fear of civil war.

In short, the correct option is the option D) the Northwest Ordinance.
