Lets see. The Civil war., the restoration, the scottish uprising,
the Irish war of independence...

Just one civil war in that lot.

Wars of the Roses, the civil war between Stephen of Blois and Empress
Matilda to name but two more.

Neither of those were civil wars, just more wars
between those who wanted to rule the roost.

Darling, that's what civil wars ARE.

Using that mindlessly silly line, all wars are civil wars.

No, International wars are wars between those who want to rule the roots,
from OUTSIDE the country of (potential) conquest.

And yet plenty of those 'international wars' were in fact
actually between the various inbred offspring of european
royals and were just as much a civil war as say the Wars of
the Roses, just not as single country focussed.

You are so keen to bend your definition of civil war to suit your
agenda..

You're the one silly enough to find an agenda everywhere.

So people spend their whole time starting wars and doing politics out of
mindless random opprtunism with no agendas?

You were clearly talking about MY agenda, not that of those who start wars.
