Can anyone site a civil war anywhere/anytime in history that was WON without the use of weaponry or violence. I cannot seem to find one. Thank You

You're using the word "war", which in most cases, does not refer to a war of words, save the Cold "war".

"War"
1. a conflict carried on by force of arms, as between nations or between parties within a nation; warfare, as by land, sea, or air.
2. a state or period of armed hostility or active military operations: The two nations were at war with each other.
3. a contest carried on by force of arms, as in a series of battles or campaigns: the War of 1812.

Any takers out there care to throw something on the table. I don't want to get caught up in semantics here.
