With Nevada's entry in 1864, which was during the U.S. Civil War, there were 36 states, and it remained that number until August 1, 1876, when Nebraska became the 37th U.S. state. Colorado was the next to join the Union on August 1, 1876. The Dakotas joined in 1889. Therefore, in 1885 there were 38 U.S. states.
