North Carolina reconsidered its rejection of the U.S. Constitution primarily due to the need for a stronger federal government to address economic instability and security concerns. The promise of amendments, particularly the Bill of Rights, helped alleviate fears about individual liberties and state sovereignty. Additionally, pressure from neighboring states and the desire for greater political stability encouraged North Carolina to join the Union, ensuring its political and economic future was aligned with the growing nation. Ultimately, these factors led to the state's ratification in 1789.
