This is a very thoughtful question. Hamilton was convinced that if the Constitution wasn't ratified then states would form into confederation of states: New England and NY; the middle states; and the southern states. These confederations would develop their own diplomatic relationships with European countries and that would end up dividing the country.

The writing of the Constitution was completed on September 17, 1787. After this, it had to be ratified by at least 9 of the 13 states. In the end, all 13 states ratified it. The Constitution was put into effect on March 4, 1789.
24 originally, but after a second vote, 30.
The disputes were settled by compromises and trading so that each state would be satisfied with the end result.

The end result of the convention that met from May to September of 1787 was the formation of a Republic with a written constitution limiting the scope of government. The constitution set up three branches of government that guaranteed a separation of powers.
They were developed in the years following the declaration of independence (1776), and were finally ratified in 1781. They were probably not conceived of as a 'national constitution' (although all 13 states signed up to them), since the power of central authority was extremely limited. It had no right to levy taxation or enforce a single national currency. The U.S. Constitution was ratified on a state-by-state basis from May 1788 (New York State first) until the end of the year. It was essential to the Federalists' arguments that each and every state ratified the document separately because otherwise it would be regarded as a majoritarian imposition of will(the very thing that the framers sought to avoid).
A clear sign for voters to end slavery permanently by amending the Constitution was a realization that it was morally wrong. Many political leaders helped to make this a reality but it still took nearly a century before it would begin to result in equality among races.
The end of the US Civil War occurred on April 9, 1865. On December 6, 1865, 3/4 of the states ratified the 13th Amendment to the US Constitution, which abolished and outlawed slavery.
