Rhode Island never sent delegates to the Constitutional Convention in 1787. The state opposed the proposed Constitution, fearing it would undermine state sovereignty and individual liberties. Rhode Island's absence was notable, as it was the only state not to participate in the drafting of the Constitution. Ultimately, it ratified the Constitution later, in 1790, after it was already in effect.
