Correct... Except the process itself is described in the constitution, which every state signed.



US Constitution had to be ratified by a minimum of 9 states (out of 13 total) before it went into effect. In practice, the Continental Congress made it operable with 11 signatures; the remaining 2 happened after that.


That is true. I forgot about that part.
