Pennsylvania Quick Facts
Pennsylvania - The Keystone or Quaker State
The Liberty Bell, Independence Hall and the Philly Cheesesteak sandwich are just a few of the famous things you can find in Pennsylvania. The state has a long history, dating back to 1681 when William Penn, a Quaker, received one of the largest individual land grants in history from King Charles II. The name Pennsylvania means Penn's Woods. Even today, the state has more than 17 million acres of forest, although it is known as for its manufacturing industries.
Philadelphia was where the First Continental Congress met, wrote and signed the Declaration of Independence, which launched the Revolutionary War with Britain. Pennsylvania was the second state to ratify the new U.S. Constitution in 1787, just days after Delaware.
Today, Pennsylvania is a modern state with the 17th largest economy in the world. More than 50 Fortune 500 companies call the state home. It is the fastest growing state in international business development. In an effort to make the state more business-friendly, it lowered business taxes. Yet, unlike other states struggling with budget deficits, Pennsylvania has maintained a budget surplus.
