    A Quaker is a person who believes in living in a community of religious freedom and all they want is peace. Their leader was William Penn. He established "Penn's Holy Experiment" which was his experiment in letting people live freely worshiping however they want. Policies and rules were they believed that God exists in every person. Quakers rejected elaborate religious ceremonies, and didn't have official clergy and believed in spiritual equality for men and women. But mostly still peace. They had friendly relations with the native Americans.
