| Abstract | "In more than two centuries of statehood, Ohio, the seventeenth state admitted to the union and the first state carved out of the Northwest Territory, has had only two constitutions. The current constitution, the Ohio Constitution of 1851, which replaced the 1802 Constitution, is the sixth oldest in the country and the second oldest outside New England. The state's constitutional history has its roots in the 1787 decision of the Confederation Congress, acting under the Articles of Confederation, to enact the Ordinance of 1787, better known as the Northwest Ordinance, which organized the western lands and set in motion a process that resulted in the creation of Ohio and four other new states from the Northwest Territory"-- Provided by publisher. |
