What’s the definition of a civil war? According this article in the New York Times, the "scholarly" definition of a civil war has 2 main criteria:
The first says that the warring groups must be from the same country and fighting for control of the political center, control over a separatist state or to force a major change in policy. The second says that at least 1,000 people must have been killed in total, with at least 100 from each side.
