wars tend to have unintended consequences. the creation of false whiskers due to a revival in beards was one of them.
in britain, beards had been out of style for about 300 years when the british military helped turkey take on russia in the crimean war (1853 - 1856). hairy chins were not only out of fashion, though. they were also banned by the british army. but then british soldiers encountered crimeas freezing winter temperatures. the army discarded the rule and the soldiers tossed their razors. by the time the troops returned home two years later, many of them had beards.
the term sideburns was inspired by civil war general ambrose burnside and his facial hair.

Explanation:

The article mentions the Crimean War was fought from 1853 - 1856, and that side - burns were inspired by Civil War General Ambrose Burnside, thus explaining how they got their name. It also implies cold conditions in Crimea during the war. There is no mention of when the American Civil War was fought.

Answer:

B. When was the American Civil War fought?
