Religious toleration in Quaker-dominated (in fact, Quaker-founded) Pennsylvania meant that colonists there could practice their religious beliefs according to the dictates of their own consciences without fear of social disapproval or governmental persecution. As a result especially of William Penn's leadership in the colony, persons of diverse nationalities and religious faiths flocked to Pennsylvania in the late 1600s and early 1700s.
