The documents in the Federalist Papers helped.

The ratification of the US Constitution was dependent on the various States, including the important one of New York. With this in mind, several of the founding fathers of the new nation put together a series of essays explaining Federalism, in hopes of gaining NY's support.

Which came first ratification by New York or ratification by north Caroline?

Ratification by New York came first, as it ratified the U.S. Constitution on July 26, 1788. North Carolina followed later, ratifying the Constitution on November 21, 1789, after initially rejecting it in 1788. Thus, New York's ratification preceded that of North Carolina.


Why is July 2 1788 so important?

On July 2, 1788, the Confederation Congress, meeting in New York, received word that a reconvened New Hampshire ratifying convention had approved the Constitution. With South Carolina's acceptance of the Constitution in May, New Hampshire thus became the ninth state to ratify. The Congress appointed a committee "for putting the said Constitution into operation." See below link:
