		A civil war is a war in which parties within the same culture, society or nationality fight against each other for the control of political power.
		The successful civil war of the 1640s in England which led to the (temporary) overthrow of the monarchy represented by Charles I became known as the English Civil War, which can be described, by Marxists and some historians, as the English Revolution.
