The message that the creator of the cartoon seems to be conveying is that the colonies must unite and work together in order to survive against the English oppression.
#4) What INFORMATION can you get from the cartoon?
Information that can be gathered from this cartoon may include the fact that there were eight colonies during that time, and that they were found in dire circumstances, since the cartoon is clearly making the ultimatum, "Join, or Die".
#5) What INFERENCES can you make from the cartoon?
One could infer that the colonies were going through a period of disunion and stubbornness, since the creator of the cartoon seems to be advising each colony to join together as one. The snake, with New England as a head, will die without being connected to the rest of its body, or in this case, the other seven of the colonies.
