Yes, "Civil War" should be capitalized when referring to a specific historical event, such as the American Civil War. In this context, it denotes a particular conflict with recognized significance. However, when used generically to refer to any civil war, it should not be capitalized.

Jane, South, and Civil War are all proper nouns in this context and should be capitalized.
