"The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (pronounced [pɛnsl̩ˈveɪnjə] or [pɛnsl̩ˈveɪniə]) is a state in the northeastern part of the United States.\n\n"Pennsylvania has been known as the Quaker State since 1776; prior to that, it was known as the Quaker Province,[2] in recognition of Quaker[3] William Penn's First Frame of Government[4] constitution for Pennsylvania that guaranteed liberty of conscience. Penn knew of the hostility[5] Quakers faced when they opposed rituals, oaths, violence, and ostentatious frippery.[6]\n\n"Pennsylvania has also been known as the Keystone State since 1802,[7] based in part upon its central location among the original Thirteen Colonies forming the United States.[7] Pennsylvania, however is not only geographically the keystone state, but economically as well, having both the industry common to the North, making such wares as Conestoga wagons[8] and rifles,[9] and the agriculture common to the South, producing feed, fiber, food, and tobacco.[10]"

The four commonwealths are Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Massachusetts. Other than in name, they are treated no differently than states by the federal government. The philosophers John Locke and Thomas Hobbes, along with English reformer Oliver Cromwell, are associated with using the term regarding politically organized communities or governments with common goals.

The Mason-Dixon Line separates the states of Maryland and Pennsylvania. The line was surveyed by Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon between 1763 and 1767 to settle land claims not only for Maryland and Pennsylvania, but also Maryland and Deleware. The term Mason-Dixon Line has come to symbolize cultural differnences in the US since the early 1800's.

Kansas is a Midwestern state in the United States. The name is derived from the Siouan word Kansa meaning "People of the south wind." Located in the heartland of the country, Kansas is home to the geographical center of the contiguous United States. The state was first settled by Americans in the 1850s by abolitionists from Massachusetts, who attempted to stop the spread of slavery from neighboring Missouri. Kansas, which was a free state, was a hotbed of violence and chaos in its early days as pro-slavery and anti-slavery forces collided. After the Civil War, the population of Kansas exploded as wave after wave of immigrants turned the desolate prairie into productive farmland. Today Kansas is one of the most productive agricultural states, leading the country in wheat production.

Technically, I'm not sure there is a correct answer.\n\nKentucky and West Virginia come closest, but both were parts of Virginia when it was under British Rule.\n\nI will say West Virginia, since it was created long after the French and British had left the US.
