PLEASE HELP ME how land in the Northwest Territory was divided. Each township consisted of a 6-mile-by-6-mile section of land that was then divided into 36 one-mile-square sections. That means one township is 3,840 acres. Some of the land in the Old Northwest sold for as little as eight cents per acre. At that rate, how much would a speculator in the late-eighteenth century pay for one section of land? (Keep in mind today an acre goes for roughly $50,000.

Speculate on how the Northwest Territory would have been settled if the grid system for surveying and marketing the lands had not been used.

it would not be as organized and the land probably would be sold for less also the land surrounding rivers would go faster and be sold for more

Explanation:

union blockade

explanation:

the union blockade in the american civil war was a naval strategy by the united states to prevent the confederacy from trading.

the blockade was proclaimed by president abraham lincoln in april 1861, and required the monitoring of 3,500 miles (5,600 km) of atlantic and gulf coastline, including 12 major ports, notably new orleans and mobile. those blockade runners fast enough to evade the union navy could only carry a small fraction of the supplies needed. they were operated largely by british citizens, making use of neutral ports such as havana, nassau and bermuda. the union commissioned around 500 ships, which destroyed or captured about 1,500 blockade runners over the course of the war.
