There were three theaters of the Civil War fought on land. The Main theaters were the Eastern Theater and the Western Theater but there was a lesser theater west of the Mississippi called the Trans-Mississippi.

Most of the fighting in the Eastern Theater took place in Virginia and what is now West-Virginia, with a few battles being fought in Maryland and Pennsylvania.

The fighting in the Western Theater was spread throughout the states of Tennessee, Mississippi, Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina.

The two most impoartant campaigns fought in the Trans-Mississippi were the Red Rivier Campaign and the Camden Expedition, both of which were resounding Confederate victories. Other than those two campaigns there was on major battle fought in Missouri and one major battle fought in Arkansas but numerous minor battles fought in Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, Arizona and the Indian Territory.
