Pennsylvania colonists enjoyed many years of peace with their Native American neighbors because Penn spoke out for fair treat of Natives and believed the land originally belonged to them. He insisted settlers pay them for their land and Native Americans respected him for that policy.
The statement is true. Pennsylvania colonists did enjoy many years of peace with their Native American neighbors due to the policy and actions of William Penn. Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania, believed in fair treatment of Native Americans and recognized their rightful claim to the land. He insisted that settlers pay them for the land they were acquiring and promoted peaceful interactions and negotiations between the colonists and Native Americans. This policy and Penn's approach were appreciated and respected by the Native American tribes, leading to a period of relative peace and cooperation between the two groups in Pennsylvania.
