Kind of a trick question.  What would come to be the United States was governed first by the Continental Congress from 5 September to 26 October 1774.  The Second Continental Congress oversaw the conduct of the War for Independence.\n\nThe "United States" was declared in the Declaration of Independence , July 4, 1776.  However, the very first actual government, The Articles of Confederation, did not take effect until March 2, 1781 when the first Congress of the United States Assembled convened for the first time.  The War for Independece was not concluded until September 3, 1783 with the Treaty of Paris.

As soon as it was enacted.  The First Amendment is a part of the US Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land.  Any legislation or law can only be a law if it complies with the constitution.\n\nSo I guess the answer to your question would be December 15, 1791 when it was passed or ratified by the states and added to the constitution.

Kansas is a Midwestern state in the United States. The name is derived from the Siouan word Kansa meaning "People of the south wind." Located in the heartland of the country, Kansas is home to the geographical center of the contiguous United States. The state was first settled by Americans in the 1850s by abolitionists from Massachusetts, who attempted to stop the spread of slavery from neighboring Missouri. Kansas, which was a free state, was a hotbed of violence and chaos in its early days as pro-slavery and anti-slavery forces collided. After the Civil War, the population of Kansas exploded as wave after wave of immigrants turned the desolate prairie into productive farmland. Today Kansas is one of the most productive agricultural states, leading the country in wheat production.

The Kansas–Nebraska Act was a United States Act of Congress passed on January 23, 1854, organizing a territorial government for the lands that later became the states of Kansas and Nebraska. Opponents saw it as the triumph of the Slave Power and formed the new Republican Party to defeat it. The Act was a key step on the way to the American Civil War.\n\nThe availability of tens of millions of acres of excellent farm land made it necessary to create a territorial infrastructure to allow settlement. Railroad interests were especially eager to start operations, for they needed farmers as customers. Four previous attempts to pass legislation had failed. The solution was a bill proposed, in January 1854, by Senator Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois. He was the Democratic party leader in the Senate, the chairman of the Committee on Territories, an avid promoter of railroads, an aspirant to the presidency, and, above all, a fervent believer in popular sovereignty or grass roots democracy. His slogan was "Let the People Rule," which in this case meant the decision on having slavery would be made by the residents themselves. His bill caused a firestorm of protest because it was a rejection of the 1820 Missouri Compromise and might allow the expansion of slavery into Kansas, where it had been forbidden. Even before the bill passed, a new grass roots opposition party was being organized in every northern state, the Republican Party. Northern Democrats, Southerners, and President Franklin Pierce supported the bill. Douglas used brilliant parliamentary maneuvers to get the bill passed on May 30, 1854. It was signed into law by Pierce; he was a "doughface" or northerner whose political support came mostly from the South. In effect, there were now three political positions in American politics, represented by Northern Democrats (led by Douglas), the Northern Republicans, and the Southern Democrats. In 1860, they would each run a candidate for president.\n\nThe act divided the region into the Kansas Territory (south of the 40th parallel) and the Nebraska Territory (north of the 40th parallel). The most controversial provision was the stipulation that each territory would separately decide whether to allow slavery within its borders. This provision repealed the Missouri Compromise of 1820, which had prohibited slavery in any new states to be created north of latitude 36°30' since Kansas and Nebraska would be north of that line and could now choose to allow slavery.

Last time I looked, Minnesota was admitted into the Union in the 1800's.....\nRemember Laura Ingalls in Little House on the Prairie?\nWalnut Grove, Minnesota....\n\nThe state, located in the northern United States bordering on Lake Superior and on Manitoba and Ontario, Canada. It was admitted as the 32nd state in 1858. First explored by the French in the mid-17th century, the area became part of the United States through the Treaty of Paris (1783) and the Louisiana Purchase (1803). St. Paul is the capital and Minneapolis the largest city. Population: 5,100,000.\n\nTerritorial Status and Statehood\n\nIn 1849 Minnesota became a territory. The Missouri and White Earth rivers were the western boundary. A land boom grew as towns were platted, railroads chartered, and roads built. Attention turned to education, and the Univ. of Minnesota was established in 1851. The school, with its many associated campuses, has subsequently exerted and continues to exert a great influence on the cultural life of the state. The building (1851–53) of the Soo Ship Canal at Sault Ste. Marie opened a water route for lake shipping eastward.\n\nThe Panic of 1857 hit Minnesota particularly hard because of land speculation, but difficult times did not prevent the achievement of statehood in 1858, with St. Paul as the capital and Henry Hastings Sibley as the state's first governor. The population had swelled from 6,000 in 1850 to more than 150,000 in 1857; by 1870 there were nearly 440,000 people. Chiefly a land of small farmers (mainly of British, German, and Irish extraction), Minnesota supported the Union in the Civil War and supplied large quantities of wheat to the Northern armies.\n\n:)\nPeace!
