The Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania often colloquially referred to as PA by
natives and Northeasterners, is a state located in the Northeastern
and Middle Atlantic regions of the United States of America.
Pennsylvania has been known
as the Keystone State since 1802, based in part upon its
central location among the original Thirteen Colonies forming
the United States. It was also a keystone state economically,
having both the industry common to the North, making such
wares as Conestoga wagons and rifles, and the agriculture
common to the South, producing feed, fiber, food, and tobacco.
Another one of Pennsylvania's
nicknames is the Quaker State; in colonial times, it was
known officially as the Quaker Province, in recognition
of Quaker William Penn's First Frame of Government constitution
for Pennsylvania that guaranteed liberty of conscience.
He knew of the hostility Quakers faced when they opposed
religious ritual, taking oaths, violence, war and military
service, and what they viewed as ostentatious frippery.
Pennsylvania has 51 miles (82 km) of coastline along Lake
Erie and 57 miles (92 km) of shoreline along the Delaware
Estuary. Philadelphia is Pennsylvania's largest city and
is home to a major seaport and shipyards on the Delaware
River.
