Americans and french won the battle of Yorktown
I say that the battle if Yorktown were surrendered by cornwallid
The french joined forces with the Americans in the battle of Yorktown. This is the most likely reason for the battle ending in surrender.
It was won by the Americans (with the help of the French Navy) and was the end of the American Revolution.
With a little French help, the colonists were able to beat the British in the final battle of the Revolutionary War. This battle took place in Yorktown, Virginia.
The battle at Yorktown.
They helped by sending a fleet of navy ships during the Battle of Yorktown.
The Battle of the Chesapeake Bay which preceeded the Battle of Yorktown.
the battle at Yorktown
This showed the french that the colonists are good fighters(they might win the battle at Yorktown), and that they, the French should join forces with the Americans, to help them break away from Great Britain.
The British were unsuccessful in splitting the land by the Hudson, the Americans start to see how powerful they are, and the colonial army becomes much stronger with the help of the French troops, who help the Americans control the British fleet at Chesapeake Bay and defeat the British led by Cornwallis at Yorktown.
General Washington and his Continental army with the help of Lafayette and Rochambeau backed the British army under Lord Cornwallis onto the Yorktown peninsula. The French navy under DeGrasse prevented the British from evacuating the peninsula. So the British were trapped and had to surrender. This was the final battle of the Revolutionary War although there was still a British army at New York.I have to correct what jamesnet said. He has the Battles of Saratoga and Yorktown confused. The American victory at Saratoga is considered the turning point of the War because it convinced the French that the Americans had a chance of winning and so they helped us. The Battle of Yorktown was the final battle of the Revolutionary War
