How is it possible to have a civil war?

George Carlin
About This Quote

A civil war is a war between two sides fighting for the same sovereignty. The definition of civil war is that the people are fighting against each other, not each other's country or government. It is a struggle by two or more people to establish their own nation, government, or government. However, there are many disagreements throughout history about what constitutes a civil war. For instance, some people might argue that if two countries are at war with each other over the same territory, it is not a civil war, but an “international dispute.” Other people might argue that if both countries are at war over the same territory, it is an international dispute instead.
