The Battle of Yorktown

The French government wanted the colonists to win the war. French soldiers came to America to help General Washington.
General Charles Cornwallis was an important leader of the English army. In 1781, his army was camped in Yorktown, Virginia. In October, the American and French armies fought the English army at Yorktown.
General Cornwallis did not have enough soldiers to win the battle. French ships would not let English ships come to Yorktown to help him.
General Cornwallis had to surrender. He told General Washington that his army would not fight anymore. Soon, the war was over. America was a free country.
