In June of 1753, the Mohawk leader Hendrick declared the breaking of the Covenant Chain, the symbol of the Iroquois Confederacy’s alliance with New York and the other colonies. Hendrick’s action shocked colonial and imperial officials. From their perspective, Hendrick’s timing could not have been worse. Tensions between the French and English were increasing, and British officials had based their military strategy for North America on an British-Iroquois alliance. Just when the Iroquois alliance was most needed, the Mohawks had voided the centerpiece of Britain’s military strategy for North America. Something had to be done, and that something was the Albany Congress of 1754.
