The Civil War was different because the other wars had happened with other countries and this war happened between the Northern and Southern states in America, the same country. The country started to fall apart, kinda like the economy today. During the war, the southern states separated themselves from the rest of the US and became the Confederate States of America. They considered themselves a separate country, but both the Union and the Confederates were still American.
