The Confederate rebellion began in April of 1861. The term rebellion is used because the US Supreme Court ruled that the war began in July of 1861 when President Lincoln asked Congress to authorize major funds and military volunteers to fight the rebellion that was now a war.The Confederacy recognized that they were in a state of war with the United States in May of 1861.
For all practical purposes the war ended when General Lee surrendered his Army of Northern Virginia to General US Grant in April of 1865. Therefore, it's safe to say the US Civil War lasted about four years.
