B. False

Explanation:

The four-year-long Civil War was brought to an end with just a few hour fights between Union Army under General Ulysses S. Grant and Confederate side under General in Chief, Robert E. Lee, that took place in on April 9, 1865, near the town of Appomattox County, Virginia. The terms of surrender were signed between the two Generals and the most important among them was that all members of the losing Confederate side at the battle were forgiven.

Therefore, the battle was significant in the history of Civil War.
