The Albany Plan of Union was adopted by representatives of seven of the colonies in 1754. The idea was to form a united front in dealing with the Iroquois Confederation. Although it was never put into action, the plan was one of the first to consider the colonies as a unit rather than individually.
The Albany Plan of Union suggested the union of all colonies except for Georgia and Delaware. This was originally conceived as the threat of a war with France was increasing. While it was adopted by the delegates who went to the Congress, it was never put into place as the colonial assemblies thought it was treading into their individual powers.
Before this proposal. the only existing government was individual forms of government that each colonial had established such as; the Mayflower Compact and House of Burgess. The Albany Plan would allow all colonials to function as one and it would dictate the taxes, colonial defense, and certain laws. The main significance is that this proposal was the first move toward unified government.

It is imperative to put forth....
The Anaconda Plan - as the press jokingly labelled it. The plan was to blockade and starve the South, before sending in armies of invasion. It was put forward by the Union General-in-Chief Winfield Scott, and was rejected as too slow for the short, glorious war that the Government envisaged. In fact, the war was eventually won by a Union strategy that was very similar.
It put the Mississippi in Union hands, and isolated all Confederate units to the West of the river.
The cell theory was put forth by Matthias Jakob Schleiden, Theodor Schwann and Rudolf Virchow.
