"has_civil_war = yes/no" trigger

Does this trigger only apply to "official governments"? E.g., an event stating:

country event xxx

trigger
has_civil_war = yes


option a: blah blah blah

Will this event only fire for Carthage? Or will it fire for both Carthage and Carthaginian rebels?

Furthermore, does the "is_civil_war_faction" trigger apply to both sides?

The civil war rebels will automatically switch to the official government after they win. Therefore, if they exist the country is obviously in a civil war. You can make the event apply to them allways, as a possible workaround regardless.

Pretty sure that only applies to the rebels.

Thanks, but I don't think you understood that part of my question. Does the "has_civil_war = yes" trigger only checks the "official" governments?

Well my point was, I don't know, but if it turns out it doesn't theres a possible work around. Go test it out yourself

Ok, i tested it and these are the results:

I started a game in the last scenario and chose the "roman rebels" under Anthony. I noticed that the "more men" event fired for my faction (a "rebel" faction).
Since the "more men" event has the "has_civil_war = yes" trigger, it is now certain that this trigger doesn't make a distinction between "official" governments and "rebel factions".
