Great part about this comparison is the self-mythologizing about the Revolutionary War about how our brilliant minutemen were hiding in trees and ambushing British soldiers.
The Revolutionary War was really similar in many aspects to 1861-1865, except rebels won, and this is the only reason it isn't usually called a civil war.

A side note but it was immensely funny to me to discover the British call it a civil war instead, lol

Also, first casualty of it was a black man. Both literally and metaphorically.
