Answer 2

The answer is the Northwest Ordinance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Economic depression was a serious factor in the reform of the Articles of Confederation. US money was almost worthless and most purchases were done by trade. Fear over a civil war was also a factor that played in the convention because many were upset over how weak the articles were. Shay's rebellion ultimately led to the draft of the Articles of Confederation. The answer is the Northwest Ordinance because this was a constitution that specified what process states took to become admitted into the US and adopted a Bill of Rights, stating that any state admitted into the nation would be given the same principle rights as an original colony.
