Which were the last two states to ratify after the new government had already begun to function?
This is a tricky question. The last two "states" to actually ratify the US Constitution after it went into effect were Rhode Island and Vermont, not North Carolina and Rhode Island. Vermont ratified it on January 10, 1791.North Carolina and Rhode Island were the last of the "original 13 states" to ratify the US Constitution.Strictly speaking, Vermont's ratification was unnecessary since it was admitted to the union as the 14th state after all of the original 13 states had ratified the Constitution, but it did ratify it. No other state ratified the Constitution since they were admitted as states pursuant to legislation alone.
