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.
