@andy2k71 If the fighting occurred in Britain I might agree with calling it a civil war but the collection of states were a peripheral colony that decided to break away. At least a lare minority of the colonists did. They were British citizens yes but most by this time had been born in the states and what do the children care what their parent's mother country was.
Thinking further, the colonists were not trying to overthrow and establish a new British government just establish their own.

It is very encouraging to see other people also identifying this as the first american civil war.
there were far many more tories than the american historians were willing to admit.
thankfully, most of them founded canada, and we are recently realising more about the exiled loyalists.
true patriots.

a civil war has nothing to do with where on the planet is is located.
it is a civil war if the civil populace is divided and takes up arms - which is what happened.
There were a lot of Tories. Hundreds of Thousands. All citizens of the colonies were British. 'British' is a national umbrella. not a race.
So it was a Civil War.

@warscholar1945 They were British, the nationality of a citizen is not neccessarily defined by the geography. I believe it was a civil war, it arose from rebellion, individual against state, until the individuals organised to become state in their own right against the birthing state.

Steady I Really Like This Video A short three part series on the major military events of the American Revolutionary War.
rather amusing -this site now appears mute. Perhaps I can discreetly provide a comment. God Save The Queen.Long live Great Britain. Great Britain and it"s Empire can look into hisory with pride,honour and dignity. without these islands most of this planet would be stone-aged barbarians.
