Wasn't the Civil War primarily fought by federalized militias? The citizens joined a state militia unit which was then federalized and sent to the army. Of course the citizens joined these militia units knowing they were going to be part a federal/national army. Then the draft came because there weren't enough volunteers once the fields turned red.
