Yes
It was mostly fought in the South, but I'm not sure in what state the majority was fought in. About half of the major battles were fought in Virginia and Tennessee. However, the battles that formed the "turning points" of the war were in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and Vicksburg, Mississippi. The first battle was in Charleston, South Carolina and the last major battle was in North Carolina.
