The land ordinance of 1785 and the northwest ordinance of 1787 divided highly disputed land into a series of townships (6sq miles) and sections (1sq mile). These plots of land were sold very cheaply to the settlers, under the condition that they were developed and farmed. This, coupled with the attraction of adventure, encouraged "you" settlers to buy and farm the land, as well as reep its profits. The US government not only benefited by developing yet another portion of its newly acquired land, but also was able to fairly distribute land that could have been a cause for dispute, shaking a newborn nation.
