Question

Why did the British rethink continuing the war after the Battle of Yorktown?

1. It was costing them too much money.
2. King George III was bored with the war.
3. They did not need any more resources.
4. Winter was a few months away.

Answer 1

1. It was costing them too much money

Step-by-step explanation:

The British did not think the war was going to last that long. They had just fought the Seven Year's War against France, Spain, and other countries, and so they were running out of resources, especially because the American coast was so far away.
