Why would all the colonies need to join together or die?

Benjamin Franklin created the political cartoon Join or Die to symbolize how the colonies could not fight individually. It was a cartoon of a snake cut into 13 pieces each with the initials of one of the 13 colonies. The point of the cartoon was to show that they could never win the French-Indian war alone.
