In 1781, it was the coastal settlement of Yorktown, Virginia, that served as the site of the American Revolution's final major battle, which culminated in the surrender (by Lord Cornwallis) of a sizeable British military force and ultimately led to the end of the war. Minor fighting continued after this American victory, however, and a final peace was not agreed-upon until two years later.
