i personally prefer "the war for southern independence", but will accept TWBTS.

And I would prefer "War of Southern Rebellion" but realize that "Civil War" was the official name adopted by congress. I'm trying to popularize "Jeff Davis's War" but it's slow going.

It's "slow going" because it is both stupid and inaccurate.
