What were the expectations of the british from the albany congress in 1754? 1)the british sought the aid of its north american colonies to fight the french. 2)the british wanted to establish a parliamentary counterpart in the colonies. 3)the british were unaware of the gathering of colonial leaders in albany, new york. 4)the british wanted to establish a loose confederation to support taxation of the colonies.

the correct answer is 2) the british wanted to establish a parliamentary counterpart in the colonies.

the albany plan of union was a plan signed in 1754 adopted by even of the british north american colonies. the british government wanted to unite all the colonies under a ruler such as a “president general”, but the colonies agreed into a “grand council” that would regulate colonial and indians relations and resolve territorial disputes between the colonies.

despite that the plan never came to reality because the colonial governments noticed that the plan would curb their authority and territorial rights.
