Virginia's Historic Triangle, Travel & Local Download .apk Jamestown, Williamsburg and Yorktown. These pivotal points in the birth of the American nation form America's Historic Triangle.
The first English people arrived at Jamestown in 1607, establishing a colony on the shores of the James River. And in 18th-century Williamsburg thoughts of independence and rumblings of revolution began to percolate. Those ideas turned into action, the American Revolution. In Yorktown in 1781, General George Washington's troops and French allies won the last major battle of the American Revolution. American independence was on its way.
