- How did the U. S. government evolve from its founding to the ratification of the U. S. Constitution?

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

The U.S. government evolved from its founding to the ratification of the U.S. Constitution in the following way.

After the delegates that participated in the constitutional convention in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania during the summer of 1787 to create the new Constitution of the United States, the next step had to be the ratification by the states.

This was a requirement needed to formally validate and use the laws, principles, and rights included in the Constitution. In order to become law, the Constitution needed to be ratified by 9 of the 13 states.

During this period of ratification, Federalists and Antifederalists acted promptly trying to convince their states to ratify or not the Constitution. James Madison, Jhon Jay, John Adams, and Alexander Hamilton wrote their ideas in the so-called Federalists Papers, under different pseudonyms. On the other hand, Antifeferalists, lead by Thomas Jefferson, did the same with the Antifederalists Papers.

The first state to ratify the Constitution was Delaware, on December 17, 1787.
