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.

How many states has the US has admitted since it became an independent country?

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.

Which star represents Maryland?

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.
