Delaware Colony was once the lower county of Pennsylvania. Initially, it was part of the territory granted to William Penn, who established Pennsylvania. In 1704, Delaware gained its own assembly and began to operate separately while still remaining under the governance of Pennsylvania until the American Revolution. This unique status contributed to Delaware's eventual path toward becoming a separate colony.
