Welcome!
The Civil War Alliance is an informal association of independent reenactor units working together to participate in an ad hoc fashion at sponsored reenactments. Military reenactors, primarily from the Union Army of the West and the Confederate Army of the West, and associated civilian reenactors, join forces and participate in quality events throughout Southern California. These events are, quite simply, the largest and best Civil War reenactments in the region.
