Explanation:

The Articles of the Confederation was the first constitution used in the United States after it has declared its independence from the United Kingdom. In sum, the document details the name of the confederacy, as well as the rights and responsibilities of the state and central government.

However, in the Articles of the Confederation, the central government is very weakened, and many of the American founders were having troubles managing the affairs of the country due to these imposed limitations. The current state of mind at the time was best exemplified by Noah Webster's quote as stated above. Eventually, the constitution was revised to expand the powers of the central government, becoming what is known as the current U. S Constitutions.

D. Due to its laws establishing the principles of basic rights and establishing protection of those rights.

Explanation:

The Northwest Ordinance was a product of the Congress of the Confederation, much like the Articles of the Confederation. It was an organic act; meaning it focuses on managing the governance of the country's territory and lands. One of the highlights of the document was the focus on aiding new territories in becoming part of the confederation, with details on what rights would they receive and responsibilities that they will have to follow as a new state.
