Asimilarity between the land ordinance of 1785 and the northwest ordinance of 1787 was that they
a. extended slavery.
b. freed enslaved people.
c. united the thirteen states.
d. encouraged settlement.

The correct answer is D. encouraged settlement.

The Land Ordinance of 1785 and the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 both encouraged settlements by opening significant amounts of land to white farmers. The ability to own a signficant amount of land enticed many farmers to leave their current home/job for a better opportunity in what we know today as the Midwest.

These ordinances also allowed for the development of representative governments and a state constitution. This allowed the citizens to have a voice in the political process.
