King Charles II of England gave Pennsylvania to Quaker William Penn in repayment for a loan that Penn's father had made to the king. The king probably thought he was accomplishing more than just paying a debt when he made the land grant. It was a way to get rid of some Quakers, whom he considered troublesome.
