Answer:

The Battle of Yorktown was a siege between September 28 and October 19, 1781, between the American-French and the British during the American War of Independence. The siege ended with the surrender of the British forces.

The siege of Yorktown was the culmination of the War of Independence and the victory of the Americans led to the independence of the United States. The Americans captured General Charles Cornwallis and more than 7,000 soldiers.

During this battle, the French fleet was blockading the port of Yorktown preventing any supply of the British by sea, while a combined French-American army encircled the city and attacked the British.

Answer:

Vicksburg was essential to controlling the Mississippi River.

Explanation:

The city of Vicksburg in Mississippi was one of the most important locations that would help determine who succeeds in the Civil War. And it was the desire to conquer this city that Lincoln famously declared as "the key".

Vicksburg was along the Mississippi River and also a major stronghold of the Confederate troops. The capture of this city would determine which way the War will sway. Abraham Lincoln considered it important because it was essential to the controlling of the Mississippi River.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
