New Jersey was one of the original Thirteen Colonies that declared independence from British rule. It officially became a state on December 18, 1787, when it ratified the U.S. Constitution, making it the third state to do so. This date was significant as it marked New Jersey's transition from a colony to a state within the newly formed United States of America.
