Conclusion
The American Revolutionary War ended on September 3, 1783 with the signing of the Treaty of Paris. In the end, the colonies obtained the independence they so longed for in the beginning of the war. Not only did they attain freedom, but they also came to a compromise with Great Britain over issues involving territory that were also problematic. After countless unjust "acts" passed, influences from different historical figures, and battles fought, the war that had begun on April 19, 1775, with the Battle of Lexington and Concord was finally over. Even after countless additional years of oppression from Great Britain, the signing of the Treaty of Paris was the final step of the American Revolutionary War, as Great Britain finally agreed to the colonies plea of independence.
