Some Unique Aspects of the Founding of the Colony of Pennsylvania
並列摘要
Unlike other colonies, the forging of Pennsylvania was unique in purpose, planning and promotion. While William Penn's original intention may have been to create a haven for Quakers in the New World, Pennsylvania emerged as a model of diversity and receptivity for other colonies. William Penn, who founded the colony, was innovative in advertising the Pennsylvania colony in Europe to encourage settlement. He also maintained cordial and open relations with Native Americans. This paper intends to explore how Penn's legacy continues with the city of Philadelphia. More specifically, it will be shown how Pennsylvania, which was both a carefully planned ”country town” and bustling port city, developed as an ideal in terms of virtue, freedom and, eventually, democracy.
