William Penn and the Native Americans
The colony had the laws that anyone could worship freely to anyone or anything. So there religions were very mixed, but most of the people that lived in Pennsylvania belived in being a Quaker. To start the growth of Pennsylvania, William Penn sent out advertisements to other countries to invite Quakers and people of different religions to come to settle.
By 1700, over 4,000 settlers from everywhere around Europe came to live in Pennsylvania.
By 1723, Pennsylvania started to rapidly change. The English government wanted to stop the Jews and Catholics from voting. There were also some of the colonists that had owned slaves.
William Penn was suprised to see, that his colony was not as free as he had planned.
