Answer:

The correct answer is C. Virginia did not send any representatives to the Albany Congress.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Albany Congress was a meeting convened by the British Chamber of Commerce in 1754 in Albany, New York, United States. In this assembly it was advocated by the union of the English colonies in North America, to guarantee to some extent a defensive alliance against the French before the attack of these and for the Indian Wars.

Among the delegates was Benjamin Franklin, who supported a plan to unify the seven colonies, but was never assumed. The project eventually became a model of proposals made during the War of Independence of the United States.

The colonies that sent representatives to the Albany Congress were: Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island.
