Rhode Island was the last state to ratify the constitution. After it had been drafted the state legislature initially refused to call for a ratifying convention, prompting the town of Providence to consider seceding. When the state threatened with an economic boycott by Congress - finally did call a convention in 1790, ratification was narrowly approved. Most Americans supported the Constitution once it was ratified.
