a civil war the civil war was the north vs. south of one country
Jane, South, and Civil War are all proper nouns in this context and should be capitalized. South is not always a proper noun, but since we're talking about the South as a specific geographic area and not south, the cardinal direction, it is. Because it is the South, it's a proper noun. The same goes for Civil War. There are other civil wars, but because this refers to, "the Civil War," it means a specific one.

North Vietnam verses South Vietnam. Which is one of the reasons people thought it was a civil war and the US should stay out of it. But that idea is incorrect: A civil war is fought by ONE nation against itself. Just because the word "Vietnam" or "Vietnamese" was in the sentence (North & South Vietnam) does not mean it was one nation. Vietnam was TWO nations; and the North was attacking the South, which was another nation (country), which disqualifies it as a civil war.

The solution to ANY war is for one side to win it and one side to lose it. In that civil war, the South lost, which unfortunately proved to be the solution.
