Delaware Delaware was the first state to ratify the Constitution in 1787 giving it the claim to be the first state. Of course, there were NO states until New Hampshire (the required 9th state) ratified it in 1788 and it went into effect. So, technically, there were either 9 "first states" (those who had passed ratification up to New Hampshire) or 13 "first states" and they all came into being when the ratification was complete.

Eventually, all thirteen states ratified but it was New Hampshire's that was the one that counted.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
