The Northwest Ordinance (formally An Ordinance for the Government of the Territory of the United States, North-West of the River Ohio, and also known as the Freedom Ordinance) was an act of the Continental Congress of the United States passed on July 13, 1787 under the Articles of Confederation.
The primary effect of the ordinance was the creation by Northwest Territory as the first organized territory of the United States out of the region around the Great Lakes north and west of the Ohio River.

 Mrs. Hauer's Northwest Company Page
The Nor’Westers, as the traders of the North West Company were known, succeeded because they explored aggressively in the regions of Rupert’s Land reaching to Lake Athabasca and the Mackenzie River—regions that were rich sources of furs.
In 1798 some disgruntled members in the company organized the New North West Company, commonly known as the XY Company after the marks on its fur bales.
This increasingly destructive competition led company leaders, prodded by the British government, to negotiate a merger between the two companies in 1821.
