William Penn founded Pennsylvania in 1681 primarily as a refuge for Quakers and other religious minorities seeking freedom from persecution. He aimed to create a society based on democratic principles, religious tolerance, and fair treatment of Native Americans. Penn's vision was to establish a "Holy Experiment" where people could live in harmony and practice their beliefs without fear. Ultimately, Pennsylvania became a model for religious and political liberty in the New World.
