The Albany Plan of Union, proposed by Benjamin Franklin in 1754, was ultimately unsuccessful for several reasons. The most relevant option among those you've provided is:
**all the colonies were not there (in Albany) and King George said "no."**
At the Albany Congress, only seven out of the thirteen colonies attended, and there was a lack of unity among the colonies regarding the proposal. Additionally, the plan required approval from the British Crown, which was not forthcoming. King George III and other British authorities were not supportive of the idea of a unified colonial government, fearing it could challenge their control over the colonies. The other options provided do not accurately reflect the key reasons for the Albany Plan's failure.
