What year was Minnesota admitted into the union?

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.

How can you get a Vermont Civil Union Dissolved in Minnesota?

Yes. Same-sex marriage is legal in the state of Minnesota and, as with other states where same-sex marriage is legal, Minnesota recognizes out-of-state same-sex marriages, civil unions and state-registered comprehensive domestic partnerships as full-fledged marriages. Your Vermont civil union is still legal in Vermont and is also legal in Minnesota. You will be able to petition a Minnesota court for divorce and go through divorce proceedings as with any other marriage. When you have obtained a divorce in Minnesota, you will also be considered divorced in Vermont.
