The initials in the "Join, or Die" political cartoon, created by Benjamin Franklin in 1754, represented the first letter of each of the American colonies: New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. The cartoon symbolized the need for colonial unity in the face of external threats, particularly during the French and Indian War. The message emphasized that disunity would lead to the colonies' downfall.
