Question

How did Pennsylvania’s Quaker beginnings distinguish it from other colonies in British America?

Answer 1

The main differences from Quaker colony to others in British America was that they believed in religious freedom and that any religious minority could worship freely without fear of being persecuted, jailed or killed. This made this colony become an ethical and religiously diverse colony because it attracted religious minorities with open-minded citizens.

One of the main differences was that the Quaker colony had a pure democracy, one did not have to own property to vote or participate in politics. It was also the first abolitionist colony,
