In October 1781, the Kanghua interest rate of 7,000 British troops surrendered to Washington in Yorktown. At this point, the American War of Independence was basically over, and the victory of the American people was a foregone conclusion.
At the end of November 1781, the news of Convalley's surrender spread to the British mainland, and the British people set off a movement calling for an armistice.
On March 5, 1782, after a long debate, the British Parliament passed the truce decision by a majority of votes. Fifteen days later, the North cabinet resigned and the Whig Rockingham formed a cabinet. Britain tried to split the US-French alliance in diplomacy, so it negotiated with the belligerent countries separately. The United States also understands that the true intentions of France and Spain in participating in British operations are to obtain the interests of North America.

On September 3, 1783, the United States and Britain signed the Treaty of Versailles in Paris.

To the Atlantic Ocean, west to the Mississippi River, south to Florida.
According to the peace treaty, the United States also enjoys fishing rights off the coast of Newfoundland and navigation rights on the Mississippi River, but at the same time the Confederate Assembly is obliged to propose to independent states to restore the rights of allegiance and compensate them for their losses. In the negotiations between the United Kingdom and France and the West, France and the West put forward harsh conditions: France is trying to obtain the entirety of Canada; Spain is trying to claim the vast area of the western United States and the right to inland waterways.
But on September 3, 1783, Britain, France, and the West signed the Versailles Peace Treaty. France only regained Tobagou in the West Indies and Senegal in Africa, while Spain only acquired Florida and other places.
