Answer:

Appomattox Court House

Explanation:

After the Union victory at Gettysburg, Ulysses S. Grant was placed in command of U.S. forces in the East and pursued Robert E. Lee through Virginia until the end of the Civil War. Lee was able to make a defense at Petersburg in June of 1864, which resulted in a siege of the Confederate Army. Lee's army tried to break the siege on March 25, 1865 by attacking Fort Stedman, but the attack failed, and Grant forced Lee to retreat the next month. This allowed Grant to capture Petersburg and Richmond, the Confederate capital. After the Battle of Appomattox Court House, Lee surrendered his army to Grant on April 9, 1865.
