Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania is a state with an illustrious history. That's really the only notable thing about it. The luster has since worn off and degraded into a belt of rust, which is why it turned boring and also red.
They also have pirates, but everyone hates them.
Sometimes it gets confused with the infinitely more interesting Rhode Island.
Pennsylvania is also the preferred choice of pencils when they go on vacation (Pencilvania).
History[edit | edit source]
Naming[edit | edit source]
In the past, the king owed money to William Penn. He didn't particularly like Penn, but because not paying him would be despotic, he had to pay him anyway. In addition to his debt, he also had land in present-day Pennsylvania. To settle both these issues, he offered the land to Penn.
However, he was a tricky king and realized that he would still be able to tax if it he made it a colony. The king, in some strange twist of logic, wanted to name it after Penn, but Penn wanted to name it after his wood, err, its wood.
Thus the name Pennsylvania was born.
