I bet you are thinking that how does the war ended or when it ended. Also that you think that after the Battle of Yorktown everything was already over. Well for a war to be over it is necesary to sign a Treaty that states that a war is over, and to know what are the deals in which both parts will agree.
The Treaty that ended "The War for Independence" is the Treaty of Paris. The delegates from the United States were Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and John Jay. They negociated a peace treaty directly with British.
In the treaty Great Britain accepted the United States Independence.
The boundaries of the United States were: from the Great Lakes to Florida, and as far west as the Mississippi River. In an exchange the United States accepted to respect the properties in posetion of the Loyalists, and to allow tax collectors to collect debts that were owed to them.
