Answer:
Yorktown
<h2>
What made the Battle of Yorktown significant?</h2>
There were three British armies in the US at the time. One was in New York, an island that the British Navy had protected from invasion. The French declaration of war had greatly aided the Continental Army's pursuit of them there in 1778, which prevented them from landing nearby.
Georgia and South Carolina each had the southern garrison force. The southern Continental Army had recently engaged in two engagements and a siege. All of them were won by the British, but only after they had stripped the garrisons of their weapons and supplies while the local militias had destroyed the garrisons (as planned). The "victorious" British discovered that they only held<em> Charleston </em>and <em>Savannah</em>, both of which were under siege.
The last mobile army the British possessed was in action, essentially frightening the countryside and inflaming the already hostile local populace. Cooperation between the US and France had always ended in failure, but at<em> Yorktown,</em> the French more than made up for it by contributing two fleets and the majority of the troops.
The British had no mobile forces after <em>Yorktown</em>, and in fact, the garrisons in <em>Savannah</em> and <em>Charleston</em> were evacuated by ship to support New York. George Hanover wanted to continue the struggle and enlist more soldiers, but nobody else in government was that dim. It was obvious that the<em> best </em>course of action was to work out a separate peace with the US before defeating the <em>French, Spanish, and Dutch</em>. that they did.

Hey there!
Under the Albany Plan of Union, the American colonies would have been ruled by a grand council and a president general. American colonies handled domestic matters, so, they surely didn't really have extreme full power. Which makes it understandable that they would have to have two leaders, to make sure that all 13 colonies are being handled correctly in which they should correspond.
Your answer: a grand council and a president general
