The two correct answers regarding the rules established by the Northwest Ordinance and other land ordinances under the Articles of Confederation are:

  1. how new states would be admitted
  2. who would govern the new territory

The Northwest Ordinance outlined the process for admitting new states into the Union and established a framework for governance in the territories. It did not establish rules about religions, railroads, or where slavery would be permitted in the same explicit manner.
