Histoire : La région fut explorée par Hudson (1609) et Étienne Brûlé (1615). Les comptoirs suédois ayant été pris par les Hollandais, puis par les Anglais (1644), le quaker William Penn reçut le territoire (1681) et en fit un État démocratique, tolérant, dont les habitants vivaient en bonne intelligence avec les Indiens (Algonquins). [...] Le développement industriel du XIXe siècle surtout grâce aux mines de charbon, fit de la Pennsylvanie un des États les plus riches des États-Unis. 5, record 1, French, - Pennsylvanie
