How long did it take for the thirteenth amendment to be ratified by state legislatures after it was passed by congress? less than six months less than a year more than a year more than two years

The correct answer is less than a year. The Thirteenth Amendment, which formally abolished slavery in the United States, was passed by Congress on January 31, 1865 and was ratified by the required number of state legislatures on December 6, 1865; consequently, it took almost eleven months to be ratified. Secretary of State William H. Seward proclaimed its adoption on December 18, 1865. The Thirteenth Amendment was the first of the three Reconstruction Amendments (Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth) adopted the five years immediately following the Civil War (1865-1870).
