Bonus Flagnations Trivia for Pennsylvania: William Penn, the father of Pennsylvania, was born in England to a political and wealthy family. When Penn was young, he converted to Quakerism. This conversion resulted in numerous arrests for young Penn. He was even temporarily disowned by his father. However, in 1681, the King granted Penn the land of Pennsylvania and Delaware to satisfy a debt owed his father, the elder William Penn. Originally, the King Charles II intended for Delaware to be a part of Pennsylvania. When Penn arrived in the colonies, Delaware did not want to be associated with Penn's Quakerism and immediately filed a petition to create their own province.
