A similarity between the Land Ordinance of 1785 and the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 was that they encouraged settlement.

On the 20th of May, 1785 the United States Congress of the Confederation adopted the Land Ordinance of 1785. The Land Ordinance of 1785 enabled settlers in the underdeveloped west of the United States of America to purchase title to farmlands due to the fact that US Congress could not generate revenue through direct taxation.

Also, the United States Congress of the Confederation adopted and enacted the Northwest Ordinance on the 13th of July, 1787 which allowed new states to join the union from the Northwest Territory, as well as listing the bill of rights guaranteed.
