Battle for Yorktown
Explanation:
- British general Cornwallis found himself with his army in Yorktown in 1781, where he rested and rebuilt supplies.
- A significant force under arms had been fighting and dominating the American South for months, so it needed a break.
- There, unexpectedly from land and sea, they were besieged by the Americans and their allies by the French and badly defeated. After this battle, British King George began negotiations with the Americans, which eventually resulted in the recognition of United States independence
.
- If US forces had not won the revolutionary battle of Yorktown, the United States probably would not have existed today. It was a decisive victory for the combined forces of the Americans led by George Washington and the French led by the Earl of Rochambeau over the British army.
- After months of the siege of Yorktown, General Lord Cornwallis surrendered his 8,000 men and in a few weeks America fully declared its independence from the British Empire.

Explanation:
The United States intervened in the presidency of Salvador Allende and supported a military coup by Augusto Pinochet, that would lead to the death of Salvador Allende and the instillation of a military dictatorship in Chile that lasted from 1974-1990.

Intervention helped assure that there would not be a further spread of communism in Latin America that could threaten the sphere of influence of the United States. I think that the United States shouldn't intervene in the sovereign systems of other countries and that the US should have faced charges of human rights violations for the death of General René Schneider who the CIA paid $50,000 to have kidnapped and delivered weapons to the pro-coup factions who were after Schneider.
