  3. Essential QuestionThe Week of 2-6 Dec 13 “From Good to Great” MONDAY Why did the Americans establish the first government after the Revolution with little power? The writers of the Articles of Confederation did not feel that Americans wanted or needed a strong central government. They thought that giving powers to the states would be a reasonable way to run the new government. Also, in light of their history of problems with Great Britain, they feared a government with too much power.

WEDNESDAY How did the Ordinances of 1784 and 1785 and the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 open the way for settlement of the Northwest Territory? They opened the door to land speculators, who probably encouraged people to settle in the West. The ordinances also divided the land so that as soon as a smaller region reached a population, it could apply for statehood. THURSDAY How did the Ordinances of 1784 and 1785 and the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 open the way for settlement of the Northwest Territory?

The ordinances also divided the land so that as soon as a smaller region reached a population, it could apply for statehood. FRIDAY Why do you think that Britain thought that the new American government was weak and ineffective? Answers will vary but should include the idea that each state had its own government. It was hard for states to work together. Because there was a weak central, or confederate, government with limited powers, it was hard for the government to rule over the states. Each state operated independently, and Britain saw this as a weakness. Why did the Puritans want to leave the Netherlands?
