Pennsylvania's biggest city is Philadelphia, which was the nation's capital in its earliest years before Washington, DC was built. It has historic landmarks like the Liberty Bell.

On the opposite side of Pennsylvania is Pittsburgh, which has a very different culture from Philadelphia. It is closer to the Midwest culturally, and it has its own regional accent and vocabulary.

In between the two big cities are a lot of farmland and mountains. Some unique cultures live here like the Pennsylvania Dutch, who speak German, and the Amish, who avoid modern technology and try to live the same way they did 300 years ago. Some smaller cities in central Pennsylvania include Harrisburg, the state's capital, and Gettysburg, where the most famous battle of the American Civil War was fought.

Some films set in Pennsylvania are Rocky, Night of the Living Dead, and Gettysburg. Some TV shows set in Pennsylvania are It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, and the American version of The Office.
