What was the great advantage of the American alliance with France in the Revolutionary War?
During the American Revolutionary War, the thirteen American colonies were handicapped in that they had no navy to compete with the powerful British navy, and the the Americans were lacking military troops. For the most part this caused George Washington and other Revolutionary generals to fight a type of guerrilla war, although not always. When Great Britain's arch rival, France agreed to help the Americans they supplied French troops and were able to assist the Americans with there own navy. Although this navy was not as powerful as that of England's, it added to the delivery of supplies and caused the English navy to now have an additional enemy to keep an eye on. In the end, at the Battle of Yorktown, Washington's forces were helped by having French troops with him. In addition, the French navy sealed off any rescue attempts by the British navy that was headed to Yorktown to rescue British troops stranded on the Yorktown peninsula. The result was a British surrender which led to the British decision to give up its war on retaining the American colonies.

What territory was lost or gained and Yorktown?
If the question's use of the word and means atthen the answer is about the ending of the British rule in the American colonies. A large number of British troops were trapped on the Yorktown peninsula. George Washington's army held the high ground that kept the British pinned back against the sea. The British Navy was on its way from the New York harbor to give the British ground troops an escape route. It was an effort that proved too late for their army at Yorktown and too late for the British Navy to do anything to help. This was because the French Navy was strategically placed to cut off the British Navy's attempt to rescue its troops in Yorktown. The British general at Yorktown saw the futility of any further resistance and surrendered to Washington's forces. At this point the colonial battles the British would still have to fight was now at its exhaustion point. For all practical purposes, and with the support of France, the British and the Americans began the peace process which meant the loss of the American Colonies. The ensuing Treaty of Paris basically gave the Americans the separation from Britain which they sought.
