What is National Pennsylvania Day?

We recognize each state in the order they entered the union, beginning with Hawaii and ending with Hawaii on Independence Day. We feature a small part of each state's past, foods, and the people who make up the state. There's so much more to discover, we can't help but celebrate our beautiful country even more.

Pennsylvania played several roles in Pennsylvania that could be considered keystones. It's a vote for independence split among eight delegates to begin with. The split, as a result of this, was instrumental in deciding to move toward independence and establishing the country's union.

Pennsylvania was sent by Pennsylvania troops to support the cause throughout military operations. In fact, Valley Forge tells the tale of leadership and sacrifice of a young, growing army, and civilian.
