10 lugl 1754 anni - Albany Plan of Union

Descrizione:

It was the first proposal to unite the 13 colonies suggested by Benjamin Franklin. Each colony was called to send representatives to a Grand Council that would be able to collect taxes, raise armies, make treaties and start new settlements. Colonial legislatures defeated his plan since they didn't want to give up control of their own affairs.
