Long history lesson here... Some states were the original united states original 13 colonies.. Other states were governed by other countries... France had Lousiana.. Spain had parts of what is now the united states. If i'm not mistaken I think Texas was the only state that was its own republic after fighting from indepence from Mexico.

There are currently 50 official states however Washington, DC and Puerto Rico have representatives in congress.\n\nPuerto Rico recently voted not to become the 51 state in the Union but is protected by the US as is The Us Virgin Islands and Guam.\n\nAnd let's not forget that the US is the Police force of the Earth so I guess even tho they are not actually part of the US the entire Planet is controled in some way by the US.

It was about 4%. I can't say about Connecticut but I'm sure it wasn't far from the national numbers. You have to remember this calculation is based on an assumed average group of purchases/expenditures and doesn't reflect exactly what each individual does.

After the Mexican-American War, the United States paid Mexico $15 million (the Treaty of Guadulupe Hidalgo) for what is now California, Nevada, Utah, most of Arizona, and parts of Colorado, Wyoming, and New Mexico.  Texas won its War of Independence from Mexico in 1836, and later joined the United States as a slave state in 1845.\n\nThe United States later purchased the southern portion of Arizona, as well as the panhandle portion of New Mexico, in 1853 (the Gadsden Purchase) for $10 million.

Today's Question:\n\n    Where can I found out how many colleges and universities there are in each state? \n\n\n\nThe Answer:\n\n    Try visiting the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) web site.\nhttp://nces.ed.gov/\n\n    But not yet, we're going to answer your question first.\n\n    According to NCES data from 1997-98, there were 4,064 degree-granting institutions in the United States.\n\n    California was home to 396, more than any other U.S. state. In second was New York (319), followed by Pennsylvania (253), Texas (194) and Illinois (172).\n\n    But if you want us to break it down by public and private four-year institutions, here are what the lists would look like.\n\n    Private four-year institutions (1,694 total): 1.California (182); 2.New York (170), 3.Pennsylvania (101), 4.Illinois (94), 5.Massachusetts (83).\n\n    Public four-year institutions (615 total): 1.Pennsylvania (45), 2.New York (42), 3.Texas (41), 4.California (32), 5. Ohio (27).\n    For more information, check out our table of Accredited U.S. Senior Colleges and Universities.

The constitution had to be ratified by 9 states to go into effect.  DEL, NJ, PA(1787), CT, GA, MA, NH, MD, and SC(1788) were the nine that put it into effect. VA and  NY(both in 1788) quickly ratified thereafter, but NC(1789), RI(1790) and VT(1791) didn't ratify until later.  Hope that answers your question.
