Why is it important that all 13 states ratify the constitution?

Answer 1

It was important for all the states to ratify the constitution so that it would last longer. Without amendments and the flexibility of the constitution, eventually the states probably would have gotten rid of the constitution and began a new one until it satisfied the requirements of each state.

Answer 2

This was so that the constitution would last longer and be able to survive. If even one state had voted down the constitution, then that state may have left the nation soon after and caused problems for the new nation.

Answer 3

On December 7, 1787, Delaware became the first state to approve the Constitution. By June 21, 1788, the ninth state-New Hampshire-ratified it. In theory, this made the Constitution law. However, without the support of the largest states-New York and Virginia-the new government could not succeed.

Answer 4

It was important for all states to ratify the Constitution to provide unification. If all the states were united, the Constitution would be stronger.
