Shouldn't Northwestern change their name to Midwestern?

At the time of its creation, the territory included all the land west of Pennsylvania, northwest of the Ohio River and east of the Mississippi River below the Great Lakes, and what later became known as the Boundary Waters. The region was ceded to the United States in the Treaty of Paris of 1783. Throughout the Revolutionary War, the region was part of the British Province of Quebec. It spanned all or large parts of six eventual U.S. states (Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and the northeastern part of Minnesota). Reduced to present-day Ohio, eastern Michigan and a sliver of southeastern Indiana with the formation of Indiana Territory July 4, 1800, it ceased to exist March 1, 1803, when the southeastern portion of the territory was admitted to the Union as the state of Ohio, and the remainder attached to Indiana Territory.
Initially, the territory was governed by martial law under a governor and three judges. As population increased, a legislature was formed as were a succession of counties, eventually totaling thirteen. At the time of its creation the Northwest Territory was a vast wilderness, long-populated by Native American cultures including the Delaware, Miami, Potawatomi, Shawnee and others; there were only a handful of French colonial settlements, plus Clarksville at the Falls of the Ohio. By the time of the territory's dissolution, there were dozens of towns and settlements, a few with thousands of settlers, chiefly along the Ohio and Miami Rivers and the south shore of Lake Erie in Ohio. Conflicts between settlers and Native American inhabitants of the Territory resulted in the Northwest Indian War culminating in General "Mad" Anthony Wayne's victory at Battle of Fallen Timbers in 1794. The subsequent Treaty of Greenville in 1795 opened the way for settlement of southern and western Ohio.
Waqtigii la abuuray, dhulku wuxuu ka koobnaa dhammaan dhulka galbeedka Pennsylvania, waqooyi-galbeed ee Wabiga Ohio iyo bariga Wabiga Mississippi ee ka hooseeya harooyinka waaweyn, iyo wixii markii dambe loo yaqaanno Biyaha Xuduudaha. Gobolka waxaa lagu wareejiyay Mareykanka heshiiskii Paris ee 1783. Intii lagu jiray Dagaalkii Kacaanka, gobolku wuxuu ka mid ahaa Gobolka Quebec ee Ingiriiska. Waxay ku fidday dhammaan ama qaybo badan oo lix gobol oo Maraykan ah (Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, iyo qaybta waqooyi bari ee Minnesota). La dhimay ilaa maanta Ohio, bariga Michigan iyo qayb ka mid ah koonfur-bari Indiana oo leh samaynta Indiana Territory Julaay 4, 1800, way joogsatay inay jirto March 1, 1803, markii qaybta koonfur-bari ee dhulka loo ogolaaday Ururka sida gobolka. ee Ohio, iyo inta soo hartay ee ku xiran Indiana Territory.
Markii hore, dhulka waxaa lagu maamuli jiray sharciga dagaalka oo hoos imaanayay guddoomiye iyo saddex garsoore. Markii ay dadku kordheen, waxa la sameeyay gole sharci-dejin sida is-xigxiga gobollo, aakhirkiina wadartoodu waxay noqotay saddex iyo toban. Waqtigii la abuuray, Territory-ga Waqooyi-galbeed wuxuu ahaa lamadegaan aad u ballaaran, oo ay muddo dheer ku noolaayeen dhaqamada Ameerikaanka ah oo ay ku jiraan Delaware, Miami, Potawatomi, Shawnee iyo kuwa kale; waxaa jiray in yar oo ka mid ah degsiimooyinka gumeysiga Faransiiska, oo lagu daray Clarksville ee Falls of Ohio. Waqtigii dhulku burburay, waxaa jiray daraasiin magaalooyin iyo degsiimo ah, in yar oo ay la socdeen kumannaan deggane, gaar ahaan hareeraha Wabiyada Ohio iyo Miami iyo xeebta koonfureed ee harada Erie ee Ohio. Isku dhacyadii u dhexeeyey dadkii degenaa dhulka iyo dadka Maraykanka u dhashay ee dagan Territory-ka waxa ay sababtay dagaalkii Waqooyi-galbeed ee Hindiya oo ku dhamaaday General "Mad" Anthony Wayne guushii Battle of Fallen Timbers ee 1794. Heshiiskii Greenville ee 1795 kii ayaa dariiqa u furay dejinta koonfurta iyo galbeedka Ohio .
