New Netherland, established by the Dutch, was characterized by its focus on trade and commerce, with a diverse population and a more tolerant approach to different cultures and religions. In contrast, Pennsylvania, founded by William Penn as a Quaker haven, emphasized religious freedom, land availability, and a cooperative relationship with Native Americans. While New Netherland's governance was more autocratic under the Dutch West India Company, Pennsylvania operated under a framework of democratic principles and a written constitution, promoting a more egalitarian society. This difference in governance and cultural emphasis shaped the distinct identities of the two colonies.
