General Robert E. Lee surrendered primarily due to the overwhelming military pressure from Union forces, particularly the relentless campaigns led by General Ulysses S. Grant. The Confederate Army was significantly outnumbered, facing dwindling supplies and morale as they suffered devastating losses, particularly at battles like Appomattox Court House. Additionally, the strategic encirclement of Lee's forces left him with no viable options for escape or reinforcements, ultimately leading to his decision to surrender on April 9, 1865.
