Minnesota became a state the same way other states became states. The leaders of the Minnesota Territory petitioned the US Congress to join the union. After verifying that Minnesota had a viable constitution, large enough population, and a functional government, the US congress passed a law admitting Minnesota as a state. That happened on May 11, 1858.
