Most Civil wars in history, i.e. the English Civil War and the American Civil War probably started time wise as the dawn broke. For they did not have the modern equipment to give them light, so it was very much a dawn to dusk war

While tensions and even confrontations had been experienced around the nation for months, it was not until April 12th of 1861 that the Civil War is generally considered to have begun officially. On this date, Confederates fired on Fort Sumter in the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina, soon causing its Union defenders to surrender -- and the war to start.
