The Northwest Ordinance of 1787 established a systematic process for the admission of new states from the Northwest Territory, laying the groundwork for westward expansion. It outlined how territories could transition to statehood once they reached a certain population, ensuring an orderly growth of the nation. Additionally, the ordinance included provisions for education and the protection of civil liberties, promoting a framework for governance that encouraged settlement and development. This legal structure facilitated the expansion of the United States by creating a clear pathway for new states to join the Union.

The Northwest Ordinance of 1787 did not address the issue of slavery in a comprehensive manner, as it allowed for slavery in the existing states while prohibiting it in the Northwest Territory. Additionally, it did not establish a clear process for the integration of new states into the Union, as it focused primarily on governance and land distribution. The ordinance also did not provide protections for Native American rights or address their sovereignty over the land.
