The Battle of Yorktown was when America knew they had won the revolution. Cornwallis was surrounded by the American army and he sent a written surrender. After, the two armys met up for a physical surrender where the Britain army set down their weapons as a sign of surrender. It was rumored that after they gave their weapons up, the song "The World Turned Upside Down" was played.
