admitted after spending time as an organized territory
There were 45 states in 1901. The states admitted after 1901 were Oklahoma (1907), New Mexico (1912), Arizona (1912), Alaska (1959), and Hawaii (1959).
Yes. The original 13 colonies were established as federal states since 1787, starting with Delaware on December 7, 1787. By the time Mexico became a federal republic, the US had already 24 states admitted to the Union.
38 North Carolina was the 12th State admitted to the Union of the United States of America on November 21, 1789. Since there are currently 50 states, there have been 38 states that joined the union after North Carolina.
The date was December 12,1787. It was more a case of Pennsylvania agreeing to join that of being admitted to the union since the union had only one state when PA joined
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.
Bismarck has been North Dakota's capital city since North Dakota was admitted to the Union in 1889.
The USA declared independence in 1776 but wasn't officially independent until the end of the American Revolutionary War in 1783. However, upon its independence, the USA was not the country it is today. It had a different form of government in which each of the thirteen states acted as separate countries, granting humungous amounts of freedom to the people as they despised the English monarchy. Yet, this form of government proved to be useless and the Founding Fathers, among others, got together and created the Constitution in 1787. Once a state ratified the constitution, it was admitted to the Union. So since no state was admitted to the Union until 1787, 50 states have been admitted to the US since it became an independent country.

Maryland was admitted to the Union April 28, 1788, the seventh State to be admitted. Although the U.S. flag has progressed through several different designs, all with 15 or 13 (13 after 1818) red and white stripes with a blue union--each has had a differing number of stars in different configurations. As Maryland was among the original 13 States, one of the 13 stars on that flag represented Maryland, and Maryland has been represented with a star on each succeeding design of the U.S. flag since that time.
Same as now except for Alaska (admitted 1959) and Hawaii (1960). Therse were the first new states admitted since New Mexico and Arizona in 1912.
No. Two states were created from other States (Maine, from Massachusetts; and West Virginia, from Virginia).
If by original states you mean the thirteen colonies then just do 50-13. 37.
