    Explanation:

    Penn was given a land grant in the New World by king Charles II in 1681 to pay off a debt to Penn's family. He had been jailed for his Quaker beliefs. He traveled to North America and founded Pennsylvania, which was supposed to be a shelter of religious freedom and tolerant practices.
