For the Articles of Confederation to be ratified, they required approval from at least nine of the thirteen original states. This process involved extensive debates and negotiations among the states, addressing issues such as representation, taxation, and governance. The final ratification occurred on March 1, 1781, after Maryland, the last holdout, agreed to ratify the Articles, partly due to concerns over land claims by other states. The agreement marked a significant step in uniting the fledgling nation under a common framework of government.
