In addition to the norm, 'The Civil War', maybe the term 'War of Southern Aggression' would be historically appropriate, considering which side really started the American Civil War.

Well, if you want to get into that aspect of it can I call it "The War of White Southern Rich Men Wanting to Leave the Party Early (Regardless of What Everybody Else in the Region Might Have Liked) but Some of the People Who Started the Party Said NO! You Can't Leave Yet Because We Don't Want You To and We're Willing to Go to War Over It."?

And then a Southerner fired the first shot. There, is that better?

That is one picturesque description of how the party was surely disrupted. :)
