Answer:

The creation of an independent North American state had significant consequences for both the New and the Old World. Independence ensured the rapid economic and political development of North Americaж in the next century the United States became a powerful state, occupying the territory from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific.

On September 3, 1783, Great Britain recognized US independence. The new American government abandoned claims on the west coast of Mississippi and on British Canada. On November 25 of the same year, the last British troops left New York. About 40,000 loyalists were evacuated to Canada with them. By separate agreements of September 2 and 3, 1782, Britain ceded Florida and Minorca to Spain, exchanged overseas territories with France and Holland, and gained some trade privileges in their possessions.
