James Longstreet says to Arthur Fremantle "You English had your own civil war, didn't you?" Southern policy saw the war as being between two distinct nations, and preferred to call it The War Between the States or The War of Secession. They remained the preferred terms in Southern printed sources for about 100 years, until social changes caused the South to be a little more accepting of the term Civil War. Longstreet, who seems to be very well-read, could have heard what the "damnyankees" called their war, and used it to make a rhetorical point.
