The BLM's pure roots go back to the Land Ordinance of 1785 and the Northwest Ordinance of 1787.

In 1870, when HBC's trade monopoly was abolished, it ceded Rupert's Land — an area of approximately 3. 9 million km² — to Canada as part of the Northwest Territories.

The roots of this design were born out of the Land Ordinance of 1785 and the subsequent Northwest Ordinance of 1787.

The southwest corner of Marion County is the intersection of the Baseline with the Third Principal Meridian, the point of origin for the third survey of the Northwest Territory under the Land Ordinance of 1785.

Prior to that time, the territory now included in Badger Township was within the watershed of the Red River Valley and hence technically a part of Rupert's Land and Assiniboia before becoming part of British Canada as a result of the boundary settlement in the Treaty of 1818, a which fixed the international border at the 49th parallel north from the Northwest Angle of Lake of the Woods westward to the Rocky Mountains.

However, when the Montana & Minnesota Land Company oversaw the development of potential railroad land, they ignored Coulson, and platted the new town of Billings just a couple of miles to the Northwest.

The Northwest Ordinance, along with the Land Ordinance of 1785, laid the legal and cultural groundwork for midwestern ( and subsequently, western ) development.

The Manitoba Act, 1870, which created Manitoba out of part of Rupert ’ s Land, also designated the remaining territories the Northwest Territories ( NWT ), over which Parliament was to exercise full legislative authority under the Constitution Act, 1871.

The consultative process of the Wildlife Act, which implemented and supported the hunting rights set out in the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement, was an extensive piece of work, frequently attempted but never accomplished in the former Northwest Territories.

The Land Ordinance of 1785 would go further by establishing a procedure for land sales in the new territory, but the Ohio River remained an effective boundary between the United States and the Northwest tribes for a few more years.

Unlike the rest of the Northwest Territory, which was surveyed more or less uniformly under the Public Land Survey System, sections of the Ohio Lands were incrementally granted to various parties and were surveyed using disparate survey systems.

Surveys were done using the metes and bounds method used in Virginia, rather than the Public Land Survey System established by the Land Ordinance of 1785 which was more used for the most of the Northwest Territory.
