Civil war...CIVIL WAR!?...Civil war is, a war between opposing groups of citizens of the same country.
The Southern Confederacy was a nation. As a nation She had a President, Vice President, a congress, past laws, collected tax's, voted and maintained a standing army and "small" navy. That army did not fight to overthrow the U.S. government, it fought to preserve it's new sovereignty, and stop a U.S. invasion. The war was a war between "Two Nations"
