In colonial Pennsylvania, the Quakers were the primary group that enjoyed religious freedom. Founded by William Penn, the colony was established as a place of refuge for religious dissenters, and it promoted principles of tolerance and coexistence. This environment attracted various other religious groups, including Mennonites, Lutherans, and Catholics, allowing for a diverse religious landscape.

During the colonial period, the majority of land in Latin America was owned by a small elite group of Spanish and Portuguese settlers, as well as the Catholic Church.
