I'm not sure if this has been asked before. If it has, I'd appreciate any links to previous discussions.

Scenario: William Penn is given his grant in 1680 but it's for land south of the recently established Carolina colony, roughly analogous to OTL Georgia, with *Philadelphia roughly where OTL Savannah is.

Could this colony survive or would the Spanish just burn it to the ground?

Assuming the Spanish stay busy in St. Augustine and points south, would *Pennsylvania flourish?

Could the Quakers resist the draw of slave labour and cash crops like rice, tobacco, cotton etc?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts,

David
