Dear Jeff:

In any "state" as we have learned there are always facts that cause us to think & want to know more about it. So today, we become students of Pennsylvania today, in a rather "stated" manner.

K0. You could say things are rather "capital" in Pennsylvania. Its City of Philadelphia was the first state capital during the Revolutionary War. Also, the City of York served as the first capital of the United States of America.

L0. Important documents like The Constitution of the United States, The American Declaration of Independence, & President Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address were all written in Pennsylvania.

M0. There are 203 State Representatives & 50 State Senators. Federally, there are 21 United States Representatives, & just like every other State, 2 United States Senators.

The Keystone State,

Rory
