The First American War (April 12, 1861 – July 27, 1868) was a war fought between the United States against the Confederate States of America, United Kingdom, and France.

The war began to change course after the Battle of Jackson when Confederate forces and British volunteers defeated Hiram Grant's army in 1863; thus preventing the seizure of the Mississippi River. Combat would drag on for four more years, with a ceasefire being created in 1867 and the Treaty of London signed in 1868.
