If the Battle of Yorktown had not occurred, the American Revolutionary War may have prolonged significantly, potentially leading to a different outcome. Without the decisive victory that effectively ended major combat operations, the British might have continued their efforts to suppress the rebellion. This could have resulted in more casualties, increased British resolve, and possibly even a negotiated settlement that favored British interests. Ultimately, the delay in American independence could have altered the trajectory of the country’s formation and its future development.
The battle at Yorktown was a big win towards the end of the war. It was the last major battle. After the victory at Yorktown, the British realized the war was too costly to continue.
{| |- | Some very poor planning on the part of the British. They mistakenly assumed that they would have full control of the sea. When the French Navy showed up off the coast rather then their own, they found themselves trapped by the Colonial Army. There was little choice but to surrender. |}
The Battle of Yorktown was the last major battle of the American Revolutionary War. It was basically because British General Cornwallis, believed that in order to have control over the Carolina's, he would have to take control of Virginia. Cornwallis eventually settled his troops within the region of the Chesapeake Bay. General George Washington, ordered that Cornwallis and his troops be blockaded. From this, Cornwallis and his troops were trapped. On October 19, 1781, Cornwallis surrendered his army of about 7,000 soldiers. The British band piped a tune called "The World Turned Upside Down." The fighting was over.
History will repeat itself.
Yorktown was located on I would think Chesapeake bay.
Britain was unaware that Yorktown would happen. It was a seige of a British-held city in Virginia. When the battle began, General Cornwallis' plan was to keep hold on Yorktwon.
That would be October 19th 1781.
Information on the Battle of Yorktown can be found on Wikipedia, as well as Ask Jeeves. A local library would also have historical information available.

If I'm correct I believe that would be the "Battle of Yorktown" which was in 10-9-1781 :)
