The last battle of the Civil War, known as the Battle of Palmito Ranch, took place on May 12-13, 1865, after General Robert E. Lee's surrender at Appomattox Court House on April 9, 1865. This occurred because news of Lee's surrender had not yet reached all Confederate forces, and some units continued to engage in combat. Additionally, the vast geography of the South meant that communication was slow, allowing for pockets of resistance to persist even after the official end of the war. Ultimately, the battle symbolized the lingering conflicts and the chaos that followed the collapse of the Confederacy.
