American Civil |\\\\\\war American Civil War The Revolutionary War has never been referred to as the American Civil War, even though the citizens did not all agree on breaking from Great Britain. Many Americans called Tories or Loyalists fought with the British against their fellow colonists. But another name would be The War for Independence or the American War for Independence.
