  • Generally, Pre-war; the time period preceding a war.
  • The Antebellum Era in the United States, where the term refers to pre-Civil War America, especially the pre-Civil War culture in the southern states. Specifically, the era in the history of the United States after the American Revolution and the establishment of the U.S. as a sovereign nation, yet before the U.S. Civil War. There is disagreement over the starting and ending dates.
