Virginia was the tenth state.

Jazlyn Soto · Answer 2

Virginia joined the other 9 states (DE, PA, NJ, GA, CT, MA, MD, SC, NH) 4 days later, becoming the 10th of the original 13 states to ratify the Constitution. For this reason some claim Virginia is the 10th State. But this is not an accurate representation of history. Virginia is the 10th state to agree to the new Federal form of government still in use today in the United States. But Virginia was already a State of the United States of America when it did so.
