A safe place for the Quakers, particularly during the 17th century when they faced persecution in England, was Pennsylvania. Founded by William Penn in 1681 as a haven for Quakers and other religious dissenters, Pennsylvania offered religious freedom and a welcoming environment. The colony's principles of equality and non-violence aligned closely with Quaker beliefs, allowing them to practice their faith without fear of oppression.
