Why does the North call it a "Civil War" when the South had no interest in ruling them? It is officially called "The War of the Rebellion".

"It is officially called "The War of the Rebellion" Who is this 'official'?
Must be 'officially' kept a secret. It has never been expressed, either verbally or literally, as such around me.
As oppossed to 'Civil War', how often have you heard it referred to as 'The War of the Rebellion'?

It is not called officially the "War of the Rebellion". Congress officially gave it the title, "The War Between the States" in the early 20th Century.
