How did the American Civil War differ from the Revolutionary War?

The main difference between the American Civil War and the American Revolutionary War was that the Revolutionary War was fought between the British Empire and the American Colonies, the latter of which declared independence; and the "Civil War" was fought between the United States, and the Confederated States of America--two separate and distinct countries. So, in actuality, the "Civil War" was not a civil war, since it was a war between to countries.


How was the American Civil War different from the spanish Civil War?

The American Civil War was a clash between two regions that acted like two separate countries. The men in the ranks were not especially interested in the ideological (slavery) question. The Union troops wanted the cotton revenues back. The Confederates mostly just wanted to repel the invader, and maybe enjoy a darn good fight while they were at it. The Spanish Civil War was part of a Europe-wide clash of ideologies - Communist v Fascist - with other countries backing the two sides.
