what provided a plan for governing western lands
It provided for the surveying and selling of the land
the disposition of western lands.
Under the Articles of Confederation, the government established the Land Ordinance of 1785 and the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 to systematize the settlement of western lands. The Land Ordinance divided the territory into townships and sections, facilitating orderly sales and settlement. The Northwest Ordinance provided a framework for governance and the admission of new states, ensuring that territories could transition to statehood while guaranteeing rights and freedoms for settlers. Together, these measures promoted organized expansion and the establishment of an orderly society in the West.
The issue over the western lands was solved under the Articles. The large states holding vast amounts of western land ceded the land to the government under the Articles so that all the states could share in the wealth of those lands. The Northwest Ordinances were passed that provided for the creation of equal, self governing states in the Northwest Territories and the newly created states would have the same rights and privileges as the original 13 states. Congress also provided for a survey of the western lands to prepare the land for sale to all.
