Answer:
<h2>
The French fleet destroyed part of the British fleet and drove away the rest of the British ships trapping the British at Yorktown</h2>
Explanation:
<em>Battle of Yorktown</em> was the last major battle of the American Revolution. It was important because the British government began to consider<em> a peace treaty during the battle and later surrendered.</em>
American General Nathanael Greene used new tactics and it caused the British soldiers to retreat in the south. The British retreated to Yorktown under General Charles Charles Cornwallis while General George Washington marched from the north.<em> The French navy also defeated the British Navy and it started to move towards Yorktown.</em>
French and Americans armies outnumbered the British soldiers and surrounded the British Army at Yorktown.They bombarded Yorktown for eleven days. The British General Cornwallis signed the surrender document on October 19, 1781 and it was called Articles of Capitulation.

The incident in which Hamlet gets off the ship to England plays an important role in changing the entire plot. As he was being "escorted" to England by Guildenstern and Rosencrantz, he switches the letter that the King had given with the one he writes. The original message that the King had wanted to pass on contained an order to kill Hamlet in England. However, Hamlet switches the letter with a new one which orders for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to be executed.
After this, a pirate ship attacks the ship that Hamlet was on. We are not given much detail on such an occurrence but we find out that Hamlet got onto the pirate's ship as the pirates were attacking the ship that was supposed to take Hamlet to England.
Shakespeare does this in order to bring Hamlet back to Denmark and resume the plot. Although, the literary merit behind such a plot manipulation is widely debated as being either acceptable or flagrantly unacceptable.
