@EdwinBeatnik @Stevevolkwriter I came to that conclusion in 1988 doing A-level history and nothing in the decades since has made me reconsider it as in anyway invalid.

@EdwinBeatnik @Stevevolkwriter It is either three civil wars or it is one civil war with interbellum. Given all of them are over the manner of England’s governance, the division into two or three seems to me a neat way of dividing books/avoiding the old phrases like the ‘Great Rebellion’.

@FromHanged The Anarchy is clearly a civil war as is the War of the Roses. Any succession crisis that spans that many battles, length or time and involves loss of regional control on such a scale is clearly a civil war.

@CMRosens @FromHanged Again, as soon as you say the phrase French invasion, you weaken the ability to cast it as a civil war.

@LifeIsAmazingUK @FromHanged @CMRosens It is talked about. Mark E. Smith was putting out The Fall singles themed around it suggests not much, but it probably talked about more than the war of 1812 et al.
