The Battle of Yorktown forced the British to surrender, ending the Revolutionary War.

Explanation:

The Battle of Yorktown was a battle during the American War of Independence from September 28 to October 19, 1781. During the battle, the American rebels and their French allies of Marquis La Fayette were led by George Washington against the British, led by Lord Cornwallis.

When French and American generals Rochambeau and Washington met on May 22, 1781 in Wethersfield, Connecticut, to determine their strategy against the British, they first wanted to advance to New York, which was occupied by 10,000 British troops. The British army chief Lord Cornwallis, in turn, had taken a position of 7,000 in Yorktown, Virginia, but had to abandon his positions to get supplies.

Washington took the opportunity to attack the British troops in Yorktown and received the help of the French from Marquis de la Fayette. The French fleet blocked the port of Yorktown, making any overseas supplies impossible for the British. The US-French troops besieged the city and the British had to surrender. In London, the surrender led to the resignation of the Lord North government, which was replaced by peace-minded whigs. After this siege of Yorktown, Great Britain recognized the independence of the American colonies in 1783 in the Peace of Paris (1783), thus formally ending the American War of Independence.
