Are any civil wars -- other than the American Civil War -- commonly reenacted?

The English Civil War is popular for re-enactment in England. Helps that it occurred over 350 years ago though.
Spanish Civil War 1936-39 seems to be regularly re-enacted too but probably not on the same scale as the English or American Civil Wars.

The Chinese Civil War between the Communists and the nationalists is reenacted in China. They are cool and have no problem, because, one side is regarded bad or evil, and the other good ones or saviours. Hence there is no sympathy clash thing. Hence everybody enjoys the good ones beating the bad ones. :) chinese not very good on appropriation, eh?
There has been great sympathy and admiration for Confederate forces and leaders in America , even after they lost. Because the side was viewed as brave, and deserving a legacy. The victors could not and did not brand the Confederates as dishonorable scoundrels, blood hungry monsters and cruel war criminals. Don't we see people naming their kids after Confederate generals? Well, Robert Lee Frost :)

Wikipedia has a photo of re-enactment of the Battle of White Mountain
Since Bohemia was effectively a part of Holy Roman Empire, I'm calling it a Civil War.

The Battle of Lexington and Concord in Massachusetts, of the American Revolution. Technically, our revolution was a civil war.

In Lviv (Lwow) in Ukraine they re-enact the Polish-Ukrainian civil war of 1918:

(On the other hand, the "civil war" between Ukrainians and Russian communists which also began in 1918, still continues, so they do not re-enact it).
It is not completely clear whether the national liberation war in the Western Ukraine against Soviet Union qualifies as a civil war but it is also re-enacted:
