Praxis 5004 Practice Test Practice Question

Which of the following Revolutionary War battles ended the fighting in the American colonies?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The Battle of Yorktown marked the decisive end of major fighting in the American colonies during the Revolutionary War. British General Cornwallis's surrender to American and French forces in 1781 effectively sealed the fate of British control.

Fort Ticonderoga (A) was an early conflict that provided valuable artillery but did not conclude the war. Bunker Hill (C) was significant for morale but did not determine the outcome. The Battle of Saratoga (D) was a turning point that secured French support but occurred earlier in the war, well before the fighting concluded.
