The Quakers, or the Religious Society of Friends, emerged in the 17th century in England, advocating for peace, equality, and simplicity. They played a significant role in social justice movements, including the abolition of slavery and the promotion of women's rights. Quakers were also notable for their pacifism and refusal to participate in military service. Their commitment to humanitarian efforts led to the establishment of schools, hospitals, and various charitable organizations.
