According to the National Archives, women may have fought in the civil war, though they disguised themselves as men. A statement from the Army, which you will find in the attached link, says the Army basically denies and knowledge of females fighting in the civil war, but that some females could have fought without their gender having been identified.

What wars were started by women?

While wars are typically associated with male leadership, there are notable instances where women played pivotal roles in initiating conflict. One example is the Trojan War, which, according to Greek mythology, was sparked by the abduction of Helen by Paris, leading to a massive mobilization of Greek forces. Another historical figure is Queen Boudica of the Iceni tribe, who led a major uprising against Roman rule in Britain around AD 60-61. While women may not have directly "started" wars in the conventional sense, their actions have often been catalysts for significant conflicts.
