There seem to be a lot of ways to refer to the Civil War - many just refer to it as the "[Civil War]?". Google returns 1,440,000 entries for "Civil War" - and most seem to be refering to the war between the states. : The History Place - U.S. Civil War 1861-1865 : The American Civil War Homepage : Welcome to the U.S. Civil War Center! : Civil War Index Page : Civil War Interactive: The Daily Newspaper of the Civil War : Civil War Map collection : War Between the States : The Civil War Why does there have to be one name? For the record every foreigner I've ever known has referred to the United States of America in the following order of preference: *America *US *United States *USA *United States of America *The States *The Great Satan :-) If you're from Africa then you're an African, if you're from Europe you are a European, and if you are from North America then you're a North American. But if you're from The United States of America you are an American. What's all the fuss about? --MemoryHole.com |
