Gosh I was unaware that those two states hadn't joined the Union.
What country did North Carolina and Rhode Island form?

North Carolina and Rhode Island eventually joined the new Union, after they had been forced to do so by the -- technically illegal -- adhesion of the other states. Rhode Island did so a year or so after the new federal government was up and running, and Washington occupying the presidency. Their hand was forced.
