The Ordinance of 1787, also known as the Northwest Ordinance, established three key steps for the governance and admission of new states in the Northwest Territory. First, it provided a framework for the territory's governance by creating a system of temporary territorial government. Second, it outlined the process for transitioning from a territory to statehood once a population of 60,000 was reached. Lastly, it included provisions for civil liberties and the prohibition of slavery in the new states, promoting orderly settlement and governance.
