1. The snake represents eight colonies along the American coast.
2. S.C represents South Carolina, N.C represents North Carolina, V represents Virginia, M represents Maryland, P represents Pennsylvania, N.J represents New Jersey, N.Y represents New York, N.E represents the New England colonies.
3. I think the message is to point out that the colonies were ununited and separate.
4. People disliked snaked at that time, so they use a snake to represent the separation. Also, that if they don't join together, they'll die.
5. The colonies were going to face something big, and soon, so they needed to unite or else they'll be destroyed.
