During the American Civil War, the Union side was commonly referred to as the "Yankees," while the Confederate side was known as the "Rebels." The Union represented the northern states that remained loyal to the federal government, while the Confederacy consisted of southern states that seceded. These nicknames reflected regional identities and connotations associated with each side's cause.
