    Ben Franklin wanted people to know if they joint together they could defeat the king, and if they did not join they will get deafeted by the king. So Ben Franklin put the sing that said join or die but for people who did not know how to read he put a snake that said the name of the thirteen colonies ,and he put a snake that was cut in parts and it meant that we can't life if we are apart so we need to join to live.
