Why did William penn persuade king Charles II to give him a charter to start a new colony?
Charles II granted William Penn the land grant in America because of a debt he owed to Penn's father, who assisted him in regaining his throne. As a young man, Penn had become a believer in the Quaker faith, an act that drew hostilities from other members of the nobility. As a result, he chose to found Pennsylvania as a haven for not only Quakers, but any group facing religious intolerance.
